- Which reaction mechanism assumptions are unimportant in describing simple ionic reactions between cations and anions? Why?arrow_forward. Account for the increase in reaction rate brought about by a catalyst.arrow_forwardHow do chemists envision reactions taking place in terms of the collision model for reactions? Give an example of a simple reaction and how you might envision the reaction’s taking place by means of a collision between the molecules.arrow_forward
- What is the role of the activated complex in a chemical reaction?arrow_forwardAccount for the relationship between the rate of a reaction and its activation energy.arrow_forward(Section 11-5) A rule of thumb is that for a typical reaction, if concentrations are unchanged, a 10-K rise in temperature increases the reaction rate by two to four times. Use an average increase of three times to answer the questions below. (a) What is the approximate activation energy of a typical chemical reaction at 298 K? (b) If a catalyst increases a chemical reactions rate by providing a mechanism that has a lower activation energy, then what change do you expect a 10-K increase in temperature to make in the rate of a reaction whose uncatalyzed activation energy of 75 kJ/mol has been lowered to one half this value (at 298 K) by addition of a catalyst?arrow_forward
- Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?arrow_forwardConsider a reaction in which E a=129 kJ and H=29 kJ. In the presence of a catalyst, the activation energy is 48% of the uncatalyzed reaction. Follow the directions in Question 71 in drawing an energy diagram.arrow_forwardBy which of the following mechanisms does a catalyst operate? a. It decreases the activation energy barrier for a reaction. b. It serves as a reactant and is consumed. c. It increases the temperature of a reaction. d. It increases the concentration of reactants.arrow_forward
- Consider the following activation energy diagram. Which of the following statements about the diagram are true? (a) E a(forward)E a(reverse)(b) B represents the activation energy of the forward reaction. (c) Energy (H)for the reaction is AC. (d) E a(forward)=BA(e) E a(forward)=E a(reverse)Carrow_forwardDefine these terms: (a) unimolecular reaction (b) bimolecular reaction (c) elementary reaction (d) overall reactionarrow_forward
