Chapter .17
Objectives .
1. Define rate Law .
2. Define order of reaction.
3. Calculate the order of the reaction by comparing
concentration of substances with rate of Reaction .
4.Write a rate law using experimental rate-versus-
concentration data from a chemical reaction.
Rate Law .
•The rate law describes the way in which
reactant concentration affects reaction rate.
rate = k[reactant]n
•The exponent, n, is called the order of the reaction.
• It can be a whole number, a fraction, or zero.
= n1+n2+n3

rate = [ NO]3
If concentration of NO is doubled then rate

ACTIVATION ENERGY
.
E Reaction f = E P – ER
= 50 – 150 = -100 Exo
E Reaction R = Ep - ER
= 150 - 50 = 100 Endo
Constant
Calculate the Activation energy for forward & Reverse Reaction
Ea = EA - ER
40 = EA - (-10) = 40-10 = 30
E = EP – ER
-10 = EP – 0
Q.3 Draw and Label an energy diagram for a reaction in which
Ea =154 KJ/mol and E = 136 KJ/mol.
ER = 0 EA
Ea = EA – ER
Ea = 154
E = Ep - Er
136= Ep – 0
EP = 136
Reaction Mechanism
•The reaction mechanism is the way in which a chemical
reaction takes place.
•C + O2 CO 2 1 step
•Reactant product
• A reaction mechanism is expressed by a series of
chemical equations.
• 1. 2 C + O2 2CO P
• 2. 2CO + O2 2 CO2 P
• 2C + 2O2 2 CO2 over all equation
