Q

How does the excess method work

A

You assume the concentration of one reactant is constant and therefore obtain a pseudo rate constant

Q

How does initial rates method work

A

Find values for rate at different concentrations at t=0 then by either inspection or plot determine k.

Q

What is half life

A

Time for conc of reactants to halve

17
Q

What is life time

A

Time for reactant conc to decrease to 1/e

18
Q

What is the Arrhenius equation and what does is show

A

k=Ae^-ea/rt

Temperature dependence

19
Q

What graph is plotted for temperature dependence

A

Ln k vs 1/T

20
Q

How can you predict k’ for a varied T

A

LnK’ = lnk-ea/r(1/t’-1/t)

21
Q

What does collision theory take into account

A

Collision frequency - correct orientation and sufficient energy

22
Q

Explain negative temperature dependence

A

If the reaction is reversible the backwards may be more favoured at higher T
