Document Summary
Last lecture: the collision theory of reactions, reaction profiles, reaction rates. Reminder: ta office hours and la sessions start on monday 1/25. Schedule and zoom link are posted in ebook help available page: hw1 is due @11:55 pm edt wednesday 1/27, knowledge check quiz 1 on thursday 1/28: opens @ 12 am edt and closes at 11:55 pm edt. 8 questions total, the last question asks you to practice uploading/embedding work in canvas quiz. For a general reaction: a a + b b c c + d d reactants products (a, b, c, d are stoichiometric coefficients) The rate of a reaction is independent on the reaction components that we measure. Stoichiometric coefficients of a reaction can be used to relate rates at which products appear or reactants disappear. We calculated during last lecture that the average rate of disappearance of. H2o2(aq) + 3 i (aq) + 2 h+(aq) i3.
