IntroductionTwo factors that are important in many areas of Chemistry, in particular Industrial Chemistry are:
how quickly a reaction proceeds, the ratehow much product is formed, the yield.

IntroductionReaction rates deal with the ‘speed’ of a chemical reaction.
Equilibrium reactions are chemical reactions that do not go to completion, and that produce final reaction mixtures with certain quantities of both reactants and products present.
![Page 4: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
How does a chemical reaction occur?
All chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of atoms that are already present. For such an arrangement to occur, existing (or old) bonds need to be broken and ‘new’ bonds allowed to form.
![Page 5: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
How does a chemical reaction occur?
This means that there is always an energy requirement before a chemical reaction can take place; this corresponds to breaking the ‘old’ bonds. This energy required to break these bonds is called the activation energy and comes from either or both: thermal energy (heating) the kinetic energy of colliding particles.

EnthalpyThe total energy stored in a substance in called the enthalpy, or heat content.
It is given the symbol H.The change in enthalpy can be measured when a chemical reaction occurs.
It is give the symbol ΔH

Energy Profile DiagramsIn an exothermic reaction:The energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants.
The activation energy is less than the energy released when new bonds are formed.
There is therefore a net release of energy to the surroundings.

Energy Profile DiagramsIn an endothermic reaction:The energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants.
The activation energy is greater than the energy released when new bonds are formed.
There is therefore a net absorption of energy from the surroundings.

Collision TheoryA chemical reaction involves particles that are moving around and sometimes colliding with each other. The greater the number of successful collisions there are the faster the rate.
Not all collisions will result in a reaction; the particles may simply bounce off each other.
![Page 12: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Collision TheoryIn summary, in order for a reaction to take place the reactants must: collide have the correct orientation for bond breaking to
occur have sufficient energy for the reaction to occur.
The reactant particles must contain enough energy to overcome the activation energy barrier, allowing the particles present to come apart and then to rearrange themselves into the products.

Measuring Reactions RatesThe following methods can be used.
the volume of a gas evolved the mass of a solid formed the decrease in mass due to gas evolving the intensity of colour of a solution the formation of a precipitate the change in pH the change in temperature

Factors that effect the rate of a reaction -
ConcentrationIncreasing the concentration of the reactants will cause an increase in the reaction rate.
More reactants means more collisions and hence an increase in reaction rate Refer to Table 9.1 pg 200-201 for an example.
![Page 15: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Factors that effect the rate of a reaction -
TemperatureMost chemical reactions proceed quicker as the temperature increases.
An increase in temperature will cause the particles to move quicker and hence have more collisions.
It will also give particles more energy to overcome the activation energy.
![Page 16: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Factors that effect the rate of a reaction -
CatalystsCatalysts increase the rate of a chemical reaction without themselves being consumed.
Sometimes they can be used to slow down a reaction. In this case they are called negative catalysts or inhibitors.
![Page 17: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Energy Profile Diagram for a Catalyst.
The catalyst has caused a decrease in the activation energy and hence the reaction rate will increase.

Catalytic Converters
Catalytic Converters are used in motor vehicles to reduce the amount of harmful gases leaving the exhaust.
They work by providing a surface, usually composed of Rhodium or Platinum, by which the gases are forced to pass over slowly.
![Page 19: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Factors that effect the rate of a reaction –
Surface AreaThis is an important factor in heterogeneous reactions —
reactions where the reactants are in different phases, such as a solid and a liquid.
Its effect is due simply to the fact that, by increasing the surface area, more of a substance is brought into contact with other substances with which it might react.
Wood will burn much faster if it is cut into smaller pieces as more of its surface will be in contact with oxygen.

Chemical EquilibriumMost of the reactions you have studied in the past have ‘gone to completion.’
This means that all of the reactants have been converted into products or either one reactant has been in excess.
In either case, you have been able to use stoichiometry to calculate the amount of product made.
![Page 23: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Chemical EquilibriumWhilst many reactions go to completion, some do not.
These reactions are called equilibrium reactions.
![Page 24: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Reaction Type 1The Decomposition of Hydrogen Bromide
![Page 25: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Reaction Type 2The Decomposition of Hydrogen Iodide
![Page 26: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Chemical EquilibriumAs can be seen in Reaction Type 1, all of the reactant is eventually consumed.
However, in Reaction Type 2, some of the reactant is not consumed and remains present in the mixture.
REACTION TYPE 2 IS AN EXAMPLE OF AN EQUILIBRIUM REACTION.

The Equilibrium LawFor a general equation,
Then the equilibrium constant K, is defined as
![Page 30: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The Equilibrium LawK is known as the equilibrium constant as its value is
defined as occurring when a system is at equilibrium.
Another value Q, can be obtained by calculating the value at any other time other than at equilibrium.

The Dynamic Nature of Equilibrium
When a system is at equilibrium, it does not mean that no reactions are occurring.
It simply means that the forward and reverse reactions are occurring at the same time.
![Page 32: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Making Changes to Equilibrium Mixtures
An important consequence of the equilibrium law is that it is possible for every equilibrium mixture to be different.
![Page 34: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Le Chatelier’s PrincipleLe Chatelier’s Principle states that:
‘Any change that affects the position of an equilibrium will cause that equilibrium to shift, if possible, in such a way as to partially oppose the effect of that change.’
![Page 35: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Adding or Removing a substance involved in the reaction.
If more of a reactant is added, the system will adjust by trying to use up more of that reactant.
This means the forward reaction will temporarily be faster than the reverse reaction.
The equilibrium is said to “shift to the right.”
![Page 36: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Adding or Removing a substance involved in the reaction.
If more of a product is added, the system will adjust by trying to produce more reactants.
This means the reverse reaction will temporarily be faster than the forward reaction.
The equilibrium is said to “shift to the left.”
![Page 37: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Changing Volume If the volume is decreased, then the total concentration of
the substances will increase.To counter this, the system will react in the direction that
will produce the smallest number of particles.
If the volume is increased, then the total concentration of the substance will decrease.
The counter this, the system will react in the direction that will produce the largest number of particles
![Page 38: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Changing Volume If the number of moles of gas particles on either side of
the equation is equal, then changing the volume will have no effect on the position of the equilibrium.
![Page 39: Chemical Equilibrium Reference: Chapter 9 Reactions Rates and Equilibrium](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/5697bfe01a28abf838cb30e4/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Changing TemperatureThis is the only method that will alter the value of the
equilibrium constant. If a reaction is exothermic, an increase in temperature will
decrease the equilibrium constant. If a reaction is endothermic, an increase in temperature
increases the equilibrium constant.
