How many times will the rate of a chemical reaction increase? Reaction speed, its dependence on various factors

DEFINITION

Chemical kinetics– the study of the rates and mechanisms of chemical reactions.

The study of reaction rates, obtaining data on factors influencing the rate of a chemical reaction, as well as the study of the mechanisms of chemical reactions are carried out experimentally.

DEFINITION

Chemical reaction rate– change in the concentration of one of the reacting substances or reaction products per unit time with a constant volume of the system.

The rates of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions are defined differently.

The definition of a measure of the rate of a chemical reaction can be written in mathematical form. Let be the rate of a chemical reaction in a homogeneous system, n B be the number of moles of any of the substances resulting from the reaction, V be the volume of the system, and be time. Then in the limit:

This equation can be simplified - the ratio of the amount of a substance to the volume is the molar concentration of the substance n B / V = ​​c B, from where dn B / V = ​​dc B and finally:

In practice, the concentrations of one or more substances are measured at certain time intervals. Concentrations of starting substances decrease over time, and concentrations of products increase (Fig. 1).


Rice. 1. Change in the concentration of the starting substance (a) and the reaction product (b) over time

Factors affecting the rate of a chemical reaction

Factors that influence the rate of a chemical reaction are: the nature of the reactants, their concentrations, temperature, the presence of catalysts in the system, pressure and volume (in the gas phase).

The influence of concentration on the rate of a chemical reaction is associated with the basic law of chemical kinetics - the law of mass action (LMA): the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients. The ZDM does not take into account the concentration of substances in the solid phase in heterogeneous systems.

For the reaction mA +nB = pC +qD the mathematical expression of the ZDM will be written:

K × C A m × C B n

K × [A] m × [B] n,

where k is the rate constant of a chemical reaction, which is the rate of a chemical reaction at a concentration of reactants of 1 mol/l. Unlike the rate of a chemical reaction, k does not depend on the concentration of the reactants. The higher k, the faster the reaction proceeds.

The dependence of the rate of a chemical reaction on temperature is determined by the Van't Hoff rule. Van't Hoff's rule: for every ten degrees increase in temperature, the rate of most chemical reactions increases by about 2 to 4 times. Mathematical expression:

(T 2) = (T 1) × (T2-T1)/10,

where is the van’t Hoff temperature coefficient, showing how many times the reaction rate increases when the temperature increases by 10 o C.

Molecularity and reaction order

The molecularity of a reaction is determined by the minimum number of molecules that simultaneously interact (participate in an elementary act). There are:

- monomolecular reactions (an example is decomposition reactions)

N 2 O 5 = 2NO 2 + 1/2O 2

K × C, -dC/dt = kC

However, not all reactions that obey this equation are monomolecular.

- bimolecular

CH 3 COOH + C 2 H 5 OH = CH 3 COOC 2 H 5 + H 2 O

K × C 1 × C 2 , -dC/dt = k × C 1 × C 2

- trimolecular (very rare).

The molecularity of a reaction is determined by its true mechanism. It is impossible to determine its molecularity by writing the equation of a reaction.

The order of the reaction is determined by the form of the kinetic equation of the reaction. It is equal to the sum of the exponents of the degrees of concentration in this equation. For example:

CaCO 3 = CaO + CO 2

K × C 1 2 × C 2 – third order

The order of the reaction can be fractional. In this case, it is determined experimentally. If the reaction proceeds in one stage, then the order of the reaction and its molecularity coincide, if in several stages, then the order is determined by the slowest stage and is equal to the molecularity of this reaction.

Examples of problem solving

EXAMPLE 1

Task 127.
How will the rate of a reaction occurring in the gas phase change with an increase in temperature by 60°C, if the temperature coefficient of the rate of this reaction is 2?
Solution:

Consequently, the reaction rate with an increase in temperature by 600 C 0 is 64 times greater than the initial reaction rate.

Task 121.
The oxidation of sulfur and its dioxide proceeds according to the equations:
a) S (k) + O 2 = SO 2 (d); b) 2SO 2 (d) + O 2 = 2SO 3 (d).
How will the rate of these reactions change if the volumes of each system are reduced by four times?
Solution:
a) S (k) + O 2 = SO 2 (d)
Let us denote the concentrations of gaseous reactants: = a, = b. According to law of mass action, the rates of forward and reverse reactions before the volume change are respectively equal:

V pr = k. a; V arr = k. b.

After reducing the volume of a heterogeneous system by four times, the concentration of gaseous substances will increase four times: = 4a, = 4b. At new concentrations, the rates of forward and reverse reactions will be equal

Consequently, after reducing the volume in the system, the rates of forward and reverse reactions increased fourfold. The equilibrium of the system has not shifted.

b) 2SO 2 (g) + O 2 = 2SO 3 (g)
Let us denote the concentrations of reactants: = a, = b, = With. According to the law of mass action, the rates of forward and reverse reactions before the change in volume are respectively equal:

V pr = ka 2 b; Vo b r = kc 2 .

After reducing the volume of a homogeneous system by four times, the concentration of reactants will increase four times: = 4 a, = 4b, = 4 s At new concentrations, the rates of forward and reverse reactions will be equal:

Consequently, after reducing the volume in the system, the rate of the forward reaction increased by 64 times, and the reverse reaction by 16. The equilibrium of the system shifted to the right, towards a decrease in the formation of gaseous substances.

Equilibrium constants of a homogeneous system

Task 122.
Write an expression for the equilibrium constant of a homogeneous system:
N 2 + ZN 2 = 2NH 3. How will the rate of the direct reaction of ammonia formation change if the hydrogen concentration is increased threefold?
Solution:
Reaction equation:

N 2 + ZN 2 = 2NH 3

The expression for the equilibrium constant of this reaction has the form:

Let us denote the concentrations of gaseous reactants: = a, = b. According to the law of mass action, the rate of direct reactions before increasing the hydrogen concentration is equal to: V pr = kab 3. After increasing the hydrogen concentration three times, the concentrations of the starting substances will be equal to: = a, = 3b. At new concentrations, the rate of direct reactions will be equal to:

Consequently, after increasing the hydrogen concentration three times, the reaction rate increased 27 times. Equilibrium, according to Le Chatelier’s principle, shifted towards decreasing hydrogen concentration, i.e. to the right.

Z assignment 123.
The reaction follows the equation N 2 + O 2 = 2NO. The concentrations of the starting substances before the start of the reaction were = 0.049 mol/L, = 0.01 mol/L. Calculate the concentration of these substances when = 0.005 mol/l. Answer: 0.0465 mol/l; = 0.0075 mol/l.
Solution:
The reaction equation is:

From the reaction equation it follows that the formation of 2 moles of NO requires 1 mole of N2 and O2, i.e., the formation of NO requires half as much N2 and O2. Based on the above, it can be assumed that the formation of 0.005 mol of NO requires 0.0025 mol of N 2 and O 2. Then the final concentrations of the starting substances will be equal to:

Final = ref. – 0.0025 = 0.049 – 0.0025 = 0.0465 mol/l;
finite = ref. - 0.0025 = 0.01 – 0.0025 = 0.0075 mol/l.

Answer: finite = 0.0465 mol/l; finite = 0.0075 mol/l.

Task 124.
The reaction proceeds according to the equation N 2 + ZH 2 = 2NH 3. Concentrations of substances involved (mol/l): = 0.80; = 1.5; = 0.10. Calculate the concentration of hydrogen and ammonia = 0.5 mol/l. Answer: = 0.70 mol/l; [H 2) = 0.60 mol/l.
Solution:
The reaction equation is:

N2 + ZH2 = 2NH3

From the equation it follows that from 1 mol N 2 2 mol NH 3 are formed and 3 mol H 2 are consumed. Thus, with the participation of a certain amount of nitrogen in the reaction, twice as much ammonia will be formed and three times as much hydrogen will react. Let's calculate the amount of nitrogen that reacted: 0.80 - 0.50 = 0.30 mol. Let's calculate the amount of ammonia that was formed: 0.3 . 2 = 0.6 mol. Let's calculate the amount of reacted hydrogen: 0.3. 3 = 0.9 mol. Now let's calculate the final concentrations of the reactants:

finite = 0.10 + 0.60 = 0.70 mol;
[H 2 ]final = 1.5 - 0.90 = 0.60 mol;
finite = 0.80 - 0.50 = 0.30 mol.

Answer:= 0.70 mol/l; [H 2) = 0.60 mol/l.

Speed, temperature coefficient of reaction rate

Task 125.
The reaction proceeds according to the equation H 2 + I 2 = 2HI. The rate constant of this reaction at a certain temperature is 0.16. Initial concentrations of reactants (mol/l): [H 2 ] = 0.04:
= 0.05. Calculate the initial rate of the reaction and its rate at = 0.03 mol/l. Answer: 3.2 . 10 -4 , 1,92 . 10 -4
Solution:
The reaction equation is:

H 2 + I 2 = 2HI

At the initial concentrations of the reacting substances, according to the law of mass action, the reaction rate will be equal when denoting the concentrations of the starting substances: [H 2 ] = a, = b.

V pr = k ab = 0,16 . 0,04 . 0,05 = 3,2 . 10 -4 .

Let's calculate the amount of hydrogen that reacted if its concentration changed and became 0.03 mol/l, we get: 0.04 - 0.03 = 0.01 mol. From the reaction equation it follows that hydrogen and iodine react with each other in a ratio of 1: 1, which means that 0.01 mol of iodine also entered into the reaction. Hence, the final concentration of iodine is: 0.05 -0.01 = 0.04 mol. At new concentrations, the rate of the direct reaction will be equal to:

Answer: 3.2 . 10 -4 , 1,92 . 10 -4 .

Task 126.
Calculate how many times the reaction rate occurring in the gas phase will decrease if the temperature is lowered from 120 to 80 ° C. Temperature coefficient of reaction rate Z.
Solution:
The dependence of the rate of a chemical reaction on temperature is determined by the empirical Van't Hoff rule according to the formula:

Therefore, the reaction rate; at 800 C 0 the reaction rate at 1200 C 0 is 81 times less.

Example 1

How many times will the reaction rate increase?

A) C + 2 H 2 = CH 4

b) 2 NO + Cl 2 = 2 NOCl

when the pressure in the system increases three times?

Solution:

Increasing the pressure in the system by three times is equivalent to increasing the concentration of each of the gaseous components by three times.

In accordance with the law of mass action, we write down the kinetic equations for each reaction.

a) Carbon is a solid phase, and hydrogen is a gas phase. The rate of a heterogeneous reaction does not depend on the concentration of the solid phase, so it is not included in the kinetic equation. The rate of the first reaction is described by the equation

Let the initial hydrogen concentration be equal to X, Then v 1 = kh 2 . After increasing the pressure three times, the concentration of hydrogen became 3 X, and the reaction rate v 2 = k(3x) 2 = 9kx 2. Next we find the speed ratio:

v 1:v 2 = 9kx 2:kx 2 = 9.

So, the reaction rate will increase 9 times.

b) The kinetic equation of the second reaction, which is homogeneous, will be written in the form . Let the initial concentration NO equal to X, and the initial concentration Cl 2 equal to at, Then v 1 = kx 2 y; v 2 = k(3x) 2 3y = 27kx 2 y;

v 2:v 1 = 27.

The reaction speed will increase by 27 times.

Example 2

The reaction between substances A and B proceeds according to the equation 2A + B = C. The concentration of substance A is 6 mol/l, and substance B is 5 mol/l. The reaction rate constant is 0.5 (l 2 ∙mol -2 ∙s –1). Calculate the rate of the chemical reaction at the initial moment and at the moment when 45% of substance B remains in the reaction mixture.

Solution:

Based on the law of mass action, the rate of a chemical reaction at the initial moment is equal to:

= 0.5∙6 2 ∙5 = 90.0 mol∙s -1 ∙l -1

After some time, 45% of substance B will remain in the reaction mixture, that is, the concentration of substance B will become equal to 5. 0.45= 2.25 mol/l. This means that the concentration of substance B decreased by 5.0 - 2.25 = 2.75 mol/l.

Since substances A and B interact with each other in a ratio of 2:1, the concentration of substance A decreased by 5.5 mol/l (2.75∙2=5.5) and became equal to 0.5 mol/l (6. 0 - 5.5=0.5).

= 0.5(0.5) 2 ∙2.25 = 0.28 mol∙s -1 ∙l -1 .

Answer: 0.28 mol∙s -1 ∙l -1

Example 3

Temperature coefficient of reaction rate g equals 2.8. By how many degrees was the temperature increased if the reaction time was reduced by 124 times?

Solution:

According to van't Hoff's rule v 1 = v 2 ×. Reaction time t is a quantity inversely proportional to speed, then v 2 /v 1 = t 1 /t 2 = 124.

t 1 /t 2 = = 124

Let's take a logarithm of the last expression:

lg( )= log 124;

DT/ 10×lgg=lg 124;

DT= 10×lg124/ lg2.8 » 47 0 .

The temperature was increased by 47 0.

Example 4

When the temperature increased from 10 0 C to 40 0 ​​C, the reaction rate increased 8 times. What is the activation energy of the reaction?

Solution:

The ratio of reaction rates at different temperatures is equal to the ratio of rate constants at the same temperatures and is equal to 8. In accordance with the Arrhenius equation

k 2 / k 1 = A× /A = 8

Since the pre-exponential factor and activation energy are practically independent of temperature, then

Example 5

At a temperature of 973 TO reaction equilibrium constant

NiO+H 2 = Ni+H 2 O (g)

Solution:

We assume that the initial concentration of water vapor was zero. The expression for the equilibrium constant of this heterogeneous reaction has the following form: .

Let the concentration of water vapor become equal to the moment of equilibrium x mol/l. Then, in accordance with the stoichiometry of the reaction, the hydrogen concentration decreased by x mol/l and became equal (3 – x) mol/l.

Let us substitute the equilibrium concentrations into the expression for the equilibrium constant and find X:

K = x / (3 – x); x / (3 – x) = 0.32; x=0.73 mol/l.

So, the equilibrium concentration of water vapor is 0.73 mol/l, the equilibrium concentration of hydrogen is 3 – 0.73 = 2.27 mol/l.

Example 6

How will the reaction balance be affected? 2SO 2 +O 2 ⇄2SO 3 ; DH= -172.38 kJ:

1) increase in concentration SO 2, 2) increase in pressure in the system,
3) cooling the system, 4) introducing a catalyst into the system?

Solution:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, with increasing concentration SO 2 the equilibrium will shift towards the process leading to consumption SO 2, that is, towards the direct reaction of formation SO 3.

The reaction comes with a change in number mole gaseous substances, so a change in pressure will shift the equilibrium. With increasing pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards a process that counteracts this change, that is, proceeding with a decrease in the number mole gaseous substances, and, consequently, with a decrease in pressure. According to the reaction equation, the number mole gaseous starting substances is three, and the number mole products of the direct reaction is equal to two. Therefore, with increasing pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the direct reaction of formation SO 3.

Because DH< 0, then the direct reaction occurs with the release of heat (exothermic reaction). The reverse reaction will occur with the absorption of heat (endothermic reaction). In accordance with Le Chatelier's principle, cooling will cause a shift in equilibrium towards the reaction that releases heat, that is, towards the direct reaction.

The introduction of a catalyst into the system does not cause a shift in the chemical equilibrium.

At 10 0 C the reaction ends in 95 s, and at 20 0 C in 60 s. Calculate the activation energy for this reaction.

Solution:

Reaction time is inversely proportional to its speed. Then .

The relationship between the reaction rate constant and the activation energy is determined by the Arrhenius equation:

= 1,58.

ln1.58 = ;

Answer: 31.49 kJ/mol.

Example 8

During the synthesis of ammonia N 2 + 3H 2 2NH 3, equilibrium was established at the following concentrations of reactants (mol/l):

Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction and the initial concentrations of nitrogen and hydrogen.

Solution:

We determine the equilibrium constant K C of this reaction:

K C= = (3,6) 2 / 2,5 (1,8) 3 = 0,89

We find the initial concentrations of nitrogen and hydrogen based on the reaction equation. The formation of 2 moles of NH 3 requires 1 mole of nitrogen, and the formation of 3.6 moles of ammonia required 3.6/2 = 1.8 moles of nitrogen. Taking into account the equilibrium concentration of nitrogen, we find its initial concentration:

C out (H 2) = 2.5 + 1.8 = 4.3 mol/l

To form 2 moles of NH 3, it is necessary to consume 3 moles of hydrogen, and to obtain 3.6 moles of ammonia, 3 ∙ 3.6 is required: 2 = 5.4 moles.

C out (H 2) = 1.8 + 5.4 = 7.2 mol/l.

Thus, the reaction began at concentrations (mol/l): C(N 2) = 4.3 mol/l; C(H2) = 7.2 mol/l

Let us consider the properties of dilute solutions, which depend on the number of particles of the solute and on the amount of solvent, but practically do not depend on the nature of the dissolved particles (colligative properties ) .

These properties include: a decrease in the saturated vapor pressure of the solvent above the solution, an increase in the boiling point, a decrease in the freezing point of the solution compared to a pure solvent, osmosis.

Osmosis- this is the one-way diffusion of substances from solutions through a semi-permeable membrane that separates the solution and a pure solvent or two solutions of different concentrations.

In a solvent-solution system, solvent molecules can move through the partition in both directions. But the number of solvent molecules moving into solution per unit time is greater than the number of molecules moving from solution to solvent. As a result, the solvent passes through the semi-permeable membrane into a more concentrated solution, diluting it.

The pressure that must be applied to a more concentrated solution to stop the flow of solvent into it is called osmotic pressure .

Solutions characterized by the same osmotic pressure are called isotonic .

Osmotic pressure is calculated using the Van't Hoff formula

Where ν - amount of substance, mole;

R- gas constant equal to 8.314 J/(mol K);

T- absolute temperature, TO;

V- volume of solution, m 3;

WITH- molar concentration, mol/l.

According to Raoult's law, the relative decrease in saturated vapor pressure above the solution is equal to the mole fraction of the dissolved nonvolatile substance:

(4.1.9)

The increase in boiling point and decrease in the freezing point of solutions compared to a pure solvent, as a consequence of Raoult’s law, are directly proportional to the molal concentration of the dissolved substance:

(4.1.10)

where is the temperature change;

Molal concentration, mol/kg;

TO- proportionality coefficient, in the case of an increase in the boiling point is called an ebullioscopic constant, and in the case of a decrease in the freezing point - cryoscopic.

These constants, numerically different for the same solvent, characterize an increase in the boiling point and a decrease in the freezing point of a one-molal solution, i.e. when 1 mole of non-volatile electrolyte is dissolved in 1 kg of solvent. Therefore, they are often called the molal increase in boiling point and decrease in the freezing point of a solution.

Cryoscopic and ebullioscopic constants do not depend on the nature of the solute, but depend on the nature of the solvent and are characterized by dimension .

Table 4.1.1 - Cryoscopic K K and ebullioscopic K E constants for some solvents

Cryoscopy and ebullioscopy– methods for determining certain characteristics of substances, for example, molecular weights of dissolved substances. These methods make it possible to determine the molecular weight of substances that do not dissociate during dissolution by decreasing the freezing point and increasing the boiling point of solutions of known concentration:

Solubility S shows how many grams of a substance can dissolve in 100 g of water at a given temperature. The solubility of solid substances, as a rule, increases with increasing temperature, and for gaseous substances it decreases.

Solids have very different solubilities. Along with soluble substances, there are slightly soluble and practically insoluble in water. However, there are no absolutely insoluble substances in nature.

In a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble electrolyte, a heterogeneous equilibrium is established between the precipitate and the ions in the solution:

A m B n mA n + +nB m - .

sediment saturated solution

In a saturated solution, the rates of dissolution and crystallization processes are the same , and the ion concentrations above the solid phase are equilibrium at a given temperature.

The equilibrium constant of this heterogeneous process is determined only by the product of the activities of the ions in solution and does not depend on the activity of the solid component. She got the name solubility product PR .

(4.1.13)

Thus, the product of ion activities in a saturated solution of a slightly soluble electrolyte at a given temperature is a constant value.

If an electrolyte has very low solubility, then the ion concentrations in its solution are negligible. In this case, the interionic interaction can be neglected and the concentrations of ions can be considered equal to their activities. Then the solubility product can be expressed in terms of the equilibrium molar concentrations of electrolyte ions:

. (4.1.14)

The solubility product, like any equilibrium constant, depends on the nature of the electrolyte and the temperature, but does not depend on the concentration of ions in the solution.

When the concentration of one of the ions in a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble electrolyte increases, for example, as a result of the introduction of another electrolyte containing the same ion, the product of ion concentrations becomes greater than the value of the solubility product. In this case, the equilibrium between the solid phase and the solution shifts towards the formation of a precipitate. A precipitate will form until a new equilibrium is established, at which condition (4.1.14) is again satisfied, but at different ratios of ion concentrations. As the concentration of one of the ions in a saturated solution above the solid phase increases, the concentration of the other ion decreases so that the solubility product remains constant under constant conditions.

So, the condition for precipitation is:

. (4.1.15)

If in a saturated solution of a sparingly soluble electrolyte we reduce the concentration of any of its ions, then ETC will become greater than the product of ion concentrations. The equilibrium will shift towards the dissolution of the precipitate. Dissolution will continue until condition (4.1.14) is met again.





Exercise The reaction proceeds according to the equation 2A + B = 4C. The initial concentration of substance A is 0.15 mol/l, and after 20 seconds it is 0.12 mol/l. Calculate the average reaction rate.
Solution Let's write the formula for calculating the average rate of a chemical reaction:

Chemical reaction rate- change in the amount of one of the reacting substances per unit of time in a unit of reaction space.

The speed of a chemical reaction is influenced by the following factors:

  • the nature of the reacting substances;
  • concentration of reactants;
  • contact surface of reacting substances (in heterogeneous reactions);
  • temperature;
  • action of catalysts.

Active collision theory allows us to explain the influence of certain factors on the rate of a chemical reaction. The main provisions of this theory:

  • Reactions occur when particles of reactants that have a certain energy collide.
  • The more reactant particles there are, the closer they are to each other, the more likely they are to collide and react.
  • Only effective collisions lead to a reaction, i.e. those in which “old connections” are destroyed or weakened and therefore “new” ones can be formed. To do this, the particles must have sufficient energy.
  • The minimum excess energy required for effective collision of reactant particles is called activation energy Ea.
  • The activity of chemicals is manifested in the low activation energy of reactions involving them. The lower the activation energy, the higher the reaction rate. For example, in reactions between cations and anions, the activation energy is very low, so such reactions occur almost instantly

The influence of the concentration of reactants on the reaction rate

As the concentration of reactants increases, the reaction rate increases. In order for a reaction to occur, two chemical particles must come together, so the rate of the reaction depends on the number of collisions between them. An increase in the number of particles in a given volume leads to more frequent collisions and an increase in the reaction rate.

An increase in the rate of reaction occurring in the gas phase will result from an increase in pressure or a decrease in the volume occupied by the mixture.

Based on experimental data in 1867, Norwegian scientists K. Guldberg and P. Waage, and independently of them in 1865, Russian scientist N.I. Beketov formulated the basic law of chemical kinetics, establishing dependence of the reaction rate on the concentrations of the reactants -

Law of mass action (LMA):

The rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reacting substances, taken in powers equal to their coefficients in the reaction equation. (“effective mass” is a synonym for the modern concept of “concentration”)

aA +bB =cС +dD, Where k– reaction rate constant

ZDM is performed only for elementary chemical reactions occurring in one stage. If a reaction proceeds sequentially through several stages, then the total speed of the entire process is determined by its slowest part.

Expressions for the rates of various types of reactions

ZDM refers to homogeneous reactions. If the reaction is heterogeneous (reagents are in different states of aggregation), then the ZDM equation includes only liquid or only gaseous reagents, and solid ones are excluded, affecting only the rate constant k.

Molecularity of the reaction is the minimum number of molecules involved in an elementary chemical process. Based on molecularity, elementary chemical reactions are divided into molecular (A →) and bimolecular (A + B →); trimolecular reactions are extremely rare.

Rate of heterogeneous reactions

  • Depends on surface area of ​​contact between substances, i.e. on the degree of grinding of substances and the completeness of mixing of reagents.
  • An example is wood burning. A whole log burns relatively slowly in air. If you increase the surface of contact between wood and air, splitting the log into chips, the burning rate will increase.
  • Pyrophoric iron is poured onto a sheet of filter paper. During the fall, the iron particles become hot and set fire to the paper.

Effect of temperature on reaction rate

In the 19th century, the Dutch scientist Van't Hoff experimentally discovered that with an increase in temperature by 10 o C, the rates of many reactions increase by 2-4 times.

Van't Hoff's rule

For every 10 ◦ C increase in temperature, the reaction rate increases by 2-4 times.

Here γ (Greek letter "gamma") - the so-called temperature coefficient or van't Hoff coefficient, takes values ​​from 2 to 4.

For each specific reaction, the temperature coefficient is determined experimentally. It shows exactly how many times the rate of a given chemical reaction (and its rate constant) increases with every 10 degree increase in temperature.

Van't Hoff's rule is used to approximate the change in the reaction rate constant with increasing or decreasing temperature. A more precise relationship between the rate constant and temperature was established by the Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius:

How more E a specific reaction, so less(at a given temperature) will be the rate constant k (and rate) of this reaction. An increase in T leads to an increase in the rate constant, this is explained by the fact that an increase in temperature leads to a rapid increase in the number of “energetic” molecules capable of overcoming the activation barrier Ea.

Effect of catalyst on reaction rate

You can change the rate of a reaction by using special substances that change the reaction mechanism and direct it along an energetically more favorable path with a lower activation energy.

Catalysts- these are substances that participate in a chemical reaction and increase its speed, but at the end of the reaction they remain unchanged qualitatively and quantitatively.

Inhibitors– substances that slow down chemical reactions.

Changing the rate of a chemical reaction or its direction using a catalyst is called catalysis .

reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of the starting substances in powers equal to their stoicheometric coefficients.

O = K-c[A]t. c [B]p, where c [A] and c [B] are the molar concentrations of substances A and B, K is the proportionality coefficient, called the reaction rate constant.

Effect of temperature

The dependence of the reaction rate on temperature is determined by Van't Hoff's rule, according to which, with every 10 C increase in temperature, the rate of most reactions increases by 2-4 times. Mathematically, this dependence is expressed by the relation:

where and i)t, i>t are the reaction rates, respectively, at the initial (t:) and final (t2) temperatures, and y is the temperature coefficient of the reaction rate, which shows how many times the reaction rate increases with an increase in the temperature of the reactants by 10 °C.

Example 1. Write an expression for the dependence of the rate of a chemical reaction on the concentration of reactants for the processes:

a) H2 4- J2 -» 2HJ (in the gas phase);

b) Ba2+ 4- S02-= BaS04 (in solution);

c) CaO 4- C02 -» CaC03 (with the participation of solid

substances).

Solution. v = K-c(H2)c(J2); v = K-c(Ba2+)-c(S02); v = Kc(C02).

Example 2. How will the rate of the reaction 2A + B2^± 2AB, occurring directly between molecules in a closed vessel, change if the pressure is increased by 4 times?

According to the law of action of molecules, the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the molar concentrations of the reacting substances: v = K-c[A]m.c[B]n. By increasing the pressure in the vessel, we thereby increase the concentration of reactants.

Let the initial concentrations of A and B be equal to c[A] = a, c[B] = b. Then = Ka2b. Due to an increase in pressure by 4 times, the concentration of each of the reagents also increased 4 times and steel c[A] = 4a, c[B] = 4b.

At these concentrations:

vt = K(4a)2-4b = K64a2b.

The value of K is the same in both cases. The rate constant for this reaction is a constant value, numerically equal to the reaction rate at molar concentrations of the reactants equal to 1. Comparing v and vl9 we see that the reaction rate has increased by 64 times.

Example 3. How many times will the rate of a chemical reaction increase when the temperature increases from 0°C to 50°C, taking the temperature coefficient of the rate equal to three?

The rate of a chemical reaction depends on the temperature at which it occurs. When the temperature increases by 10 °C, the reaction rate will increase by 2-4 times. If the temperature decreases, it decreases by the same amount. The number showing how many times the reaction rate increases when the temperature increases by 10 °C is called the temperature coefficient of the reaction.

In mathematical form, the dependence of the change in reaction rate on temperature is expressed by the equation:

The temperature increases by 50 °C, and y = 3. Substitute these values

^5о°с = ^о°с "3у = "00оС? 3 = v0oC ? 243. The speed increases by 243 times.

Example 4. The reaction at a temperature of 50 °C proceeds in 3 minutes 20 s. The temperature coefficient of the reaction rate is 3. How long will it take for this reaction to complete at 30 and 100 °C?

When the temperature increases from 50 to 100 °C, the reaction rate increases in accordance with Van't Hoffe's rule by the following number of times:

H _ 10 „O 10 - Q3

U yu = z yu = z* = 243 times.

If at 50°C the reaction ends in 200 s (3 min 20 s), then at 100°C it will end in 200/

243 = 0.82 s. At 30 °C the reaction rate decreases

sews 3 10 = 32 = 9 times and the reaction ends in 200 * 9 = 1800 s, i.e. in 30 min.

Example 5. The initial concentrations of nitrogen and hydrogen are respectively 2 and 3 *mol/l. What will be the concentrations of these substances at the moment when 0.5 mol/L of nitrogen has reacted?

Let's write the reaction equation:

N2 + ZH2 2NH3, the coefficients show that nitrogen reacts with hydrogen in a molar ratio of 1:3. Based on this, we create the ratio:

1 mole of nitrogen reacts with 3 moles of hydrogen.

0.5 mol of nitrogen reacts with x mol of hydrogen.

From - = - ; x =-- = 1.5 mol.

1.5 mol/l (2 - 0.5) nitrogen and 1.5 mol/l (3 - 1.5) hydrogen did not react.

Example 6. How many times will the speed of a chemical reaction increase when one molecule of substance A and two molecules of substance B collide:

A(2) + 2B -» C(2) + D(2), with an increase in the concentration of substance B by 3 times?

Let us write an expression for the dependence of the rate of this reaction on the concentration of substances:

v = K-c(A)-c2(B),

where K is the rate constant.

Let us take the initial concentrations of substances c(A) = a mol/l, c(B) = b mol/l. At these concentrations, the reaction rate is u1 = Kab2. When the concentration of substance B increases by 3 times, c(B) = 3b mol/l. The reaction rate will be equal to v2 = Ka(3b)2 = 9Kab2.

Speed ​​increase v2: ig = 9Kab2: Kab2 = 9.

Example 7. Nitric oxide and chlorine react according to the reaction equation: 2NO + C12 2NOC1.

How many times should the pressure of each source be increased?
