Consider this reaction:
N2(g) + 3H2(g) ----> 2 NH3(g) + 92 kJ G298K = -16.8 kJ
What does this equation tell us?
![Page 2: Rates of Chemical Reactions](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032612/56813427550346895d9b143b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The reaction is spontaneous at 298K It is exothermic entropy is decreasing enthalpy is decreasing the names and states of reactants and
products are given for every 3 mol of H2(g) and 1 mol of
N2(g) consumed 2 mol of NH3(g) is produced
92 kJ of energy is produced
N2(g) + 3H2(g) ----> 2 NH3(g) + 92 kJ G298K = -16.8 kJ

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ----> 2 NH3(g) + 92 kJ G298K = -16.8 kJ
What does this equation NOT tell us?
How much of each substance we started with
how much of each substance is consumed How fast the reaction is Whether or not the reaction proceeds
directly as shown in the equation or if intermediate steps occur (reaction mechanism)
![Page 4: Rates of Chemical Reactions](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032612/56813427550346895d9b143b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Consider this reaction:
4 HBr(g) + O2(g) --> 2 H2O + 2 Br2(g)
This reaction proceeds through these steps
HBr + O2 ---> HOOBr (slow)
HOOBr + HBr ---> 2 HOBr (fast)
2 HOBr + 2 HBr --> 2 H2O + 2 Br2(g) (fast)
In this case the equation simply tells us the reactants and products. It doesn’t tell us the series of steps by which the reaction goes.

When we refer to reaction rates we are referring to how fast a reaction goes. Rates can be expressed both qualitatively and quantitatively. In a qualitative way one would describe a reaction as fast or slow.H2(g) + O2(g) ----> H2O (g) fastFe + 1/2O2 + H2O ---> Fe(OH)2 slowQuantitatively rates are expressed by observing the rate at which a reactant disappears or a product appears.

It may be expressed as the change in mol/unit time orthe change in concentration/unit time
Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) ---> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)
Rate =# mol of Mg consumed
Time required to disappear
=
2.4 g/24 g/mol

=2.2 x 10-3 mol/s

Potential Energy
Reaction Coordinate
1 - The reacting molecules are sufficiently far apart so they have no influence on one another
2 - As the reacting molecules approach their electrons start to repel so the H-H and Cl-Cl bonds stretch, Ek decreases and Ep increases.
3 - At the same time new bonds are starting to form between H and Cl as H nuclei attract Cl electrons and Cl nuclei attract H electrons
4 - If the molecules have sufficient energy to react a short lived activated complex is formed. At this point no bond breaking or bond making is occuring.
5 - If the reaction proceeds the bonds between H-Cl continue to shrink until they reach a stable state
