Niwatori-san's Corner (Kinetics intro)

In the past class before the Chemistry lab in which labeled "Factors Affecting the Rate of a Reaction"

We were introduced to the Kinetics unit.

A handout was handed out to display terms we should know.

Such terms included:

Rate
Rate is the speed in a chemical reaction of the reactants amount of products made.
This is usually observed experimentally by a certain chemical property.

The measurement of Rate can be varied depending how and what is being measured for the chemical reaction.

Here's a definition briefing of the terms that can be used to measure rate.

Temperature
Temperature is labeled (ºC/min)
While the reaction is on going the temperature increases. If heat is produced at a fast rate then the a higher rate for the chemical reaction will occur.

Pressure
Measured in (kPa/s or mmHg/s)

The more GASEOUS CARBON made in a chemical reaction the more the pressure increases giving an increase in rate.

Mass
In the form (g of C/min)

In a chemical reaction, with more reactants being used up and converted to gas; resulting in a loss of reactants/increase in mass of the product

Other
Other forms that rate can be label are colour change, pH change, change in conductivity, and etcetra etcetra over period of time. All are a change over time since the rate is determined during the experiment is undergo

-Quoting the text handout-
"Rate is usually described in terms of change in concentration of reactant or product over time." =)

Rate can be found from this formula in question :
RATE = change in concentration
change in time




And that concludes that class haeng un (korean for good luck) in your future studies
