3. C6.7 Friday 21 October 2011 Introduction: The rate of any reaction tells us how quickly the product is formed over time. It also tells us whether a reaction proceeds slowly or violently. This is important, because chemists need to control reactions. If a reaction is too fast, it may cause an explosion. If it is to slow, it may make the process inefficient and therefore increase production costs. The rate of a reaction cannot be worked out directly from an equation. This only tells us the molecules that react and the molecules that are produced. There are several methods for determining the rate at which the reaction proceeds. These methods include: measuring the mass lost over time or a colour change over time or volume of gas produced over time. Rate of reaction= change in volume or mass t time Extension questions: 1: Why do we need to know the rate of a reaction ? 2: How can we measure the rate of a reaction ? 3: What are the factors that effect the rate of reaction ? 4: Look at the following reactions, from their equation suggest a method that would be appropriate to measure the rate of reaction.

5. Key concepts Look at the photograph and information and answer all the questions: Explain the shape of the graph ? What would the graph look like if we use the volume of gas method (draw) ? In reactions involving the formation of a gas as a product, we can measure mass lost over time. As the gas is produced, it vents off into the atmosphere, reducing the total reaction mass. The electronic balance is able to monitor this loss of mass. Using this method, we can monitor the rate of reaction for a particular reaction.

Using a small test tube called a vial, the reaction proceeds inside the colorimeter. Using this method we can monitor the rate of reaction for a particular reaction.

Although collision theory is simple and states that for two or more substrates, they must first collide with sufficient energy to react and form new products, there are right and wrong collisions.

Know this: a: Know that catalysts speed up the rate of reaction by lower the energy required to break bonds in the substrate molecules b: Know that catalysts are not used up in a reaction. they will not be shown in a word or symbol equation. Friday 21 October 2011 Introduction: A catalyst is a material which will increase the rate of reaction without be used up. Catalysts are normally transitional metals (Iron, Nickel & Platinum) which are able to lower the activation energy required for new products to form. The reaction takes place on the surface of the catalyst, known as the active site. Effective catalysts are normally in powdered form to help maximise the number of collisions between the reacting substrates and a catalyst’s active site. The bonds are broken and the substrates combine with on another to form new products, known as polythene. These new products then leave the active site, allowing the unchanged catalyst to participate in further reactions. Catalysts in industry C6.9
17. Key concepts Look at the photograph and information and answer all the questions: Why are catalysts not show in an overall equation that describe what substrates react with what to form new products ? Explain why scientists try a find catalyst that reduce a reaction’s a) temperature or b) pressure ? Catalysts speed up the rate of reaction by lowering the energy required to break bond present in the substrate molecules. Inorganic catalysts such as transition metals are used to catalyse a wide range of different reactions. Although catalysts are not permanently altered during the reactions that they catalyse, they can be poisoned by some impurities and will not work again.

In any reaction, there is a fixed number of substrate molecules able to collide and react to form a new product molecules. Their kinetic energy follows a typical normal distribution. Those substrate molecules with sufficient kinetic energy to collide, break existing bonds and therefore form new products account for only a small number of molecules within the whole population.

19. C6.9 Plenary Lesson summary: collisions lower rate specific Friday 21 October 2011 The manufacture of ethanoic acid (which is used as a preservative) from methanol and carbon monoxide is only possible in the presence of a catalyst. Using Iridium metal as a catalyst decreases the required reaction temperature from 700 C to 200, and pressure from 700 to 30 atmospheres. The use of a catalysts saves a lot of energy and therefore cost . How Science Works: Find out how some of enzymes in our body work.

21. C6.10 Extension questions: 1: What causes the break of the old bonds between atoms of reactant ? 2: Why decrease of temperature decreases the rate of a chemical reaction ? 3: what happened to the rate of a reaction if the concentration of the reactant are increased ? 4: What happened the amount of the product if a catalyst is used in a reaction ? Know this: a: Know that existing bonds have to begin breaking so that new ones can be formed . b: Know that collisions in which substrate molecules are moving with enough energy can break bonds and form new products. Friday 21 October 2011 Introduction: Chemical reactions involve the formation of bonds between atoms but often before new bonds can be formed old ones have to be broken. This means that there has to be enough energy (activation energy) to start breaking the old bonds before a reaction can occur. Increasing the temperature increases the energy of the molecules and lead to stronger and more often collision. Increasing the concentration and the surface area makes the collision more frequent. Using a catalyst changes the activation energy and control the amount of successful collisions in a reaction. Collision theory

In order to determine the rate opf reaction between methane and water, would you measure the amount of carbon dioxide or water produced over time ? During a reaction, products are formed by substrates colliding into one another. Take methane which is rich in carbon and is a store of ancient chemical energy. During its combustion with oxygen, it releases its energy in the form of heat and light. The methane (CH 4 ) molecules breaks apart and forms new bonds with the oxygen atoms.

Explain why it matters how substrates collide (think about what happens when substrates react and the bond that are broken) ? Although collision theory is simple and states that for two or more substrates, they must first collide with sufficient energy to react and form new products, there are right and wrong collisions. During the combustion of methane with oxygen, not all collisions between the methane molecule and oxygen result in a successful reaction and the formation of new products (carbon dioxide and water.)

Know this: a: Know that relative formula mass is sum of mass of all atoms in a formula. b: Know that to find the relative formula mass you just add up the relative atomic masses of the atoms in formula. Friday 21 October 2011 Introduction: To calculate the formula mass we simply add together the atomic masses of all the atoms shown in the formula. By using the formula masses in grams we can deduce what masses of reactants to use and what mass of products or the theoretical yield will be formed. The balanced symbol equation is used to work out the relative formula mass of each reactant and product. The relative reacting masses is times by the number used to balance the equation and add the units. Take the oxidation of sodium forming sodium oxide.

During the manufacture of any product (fine or bulk chemicals) chemists will work very hard to ensure that the synthesis process is as efficient as possible, that the product purity and quality is good and that the yield remains high. In an ideal chemical process the amount of starting materials or reactants equals the amount of all products generated and no atom is wasted. Recent developments like high raw material costs (such as petrochemicals) and increased sensitivity to environmental concerns have made the minimum use of raw materials and the production of waste important.
