Chapter 20, Problem 45E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason for inability for calculating reaction rate from collision frequency alone should be determined.

Concept introduction:

  • Collision Theory helps us in predicting which conditions are necessary for a successful reaction and these conditions are-
    1. The particles must collide with each other.
    2. The colliding particles must have a sufficient energy to break the existing bonds.
    3. The particles must have a proper orientation.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation- The reason why the rate of a chemical reaction may increase dramatically with temperature, whereas the collision frequency increases much more slowly is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

  • Collision Theory helps us in predicting which conditions are necessary for a successful reaction and these conditions are-
    1. The particles must collide with each other.
    2. The colliding particles must have a sufficient energy to break the existing bonds.
    3. The particles must have a proper orientation.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation- why the addition of a catalyst to a reaction mixture has a profound effect on the rate of a reaction, even if the temperature is held constant, is to be explained.

When the concentration of reactant molecules is increased, the rate of reaction increases. The best explanation is: As the reactant concentration increases,     the rate constant increases.     the activation energy increases.     the frequency of molecular collisions increases.     the order of reaction increases.     the average kinetic energy of molecules increases.
