CHEM 001B Lecture Notes - Lecture 18: Rate Equation, Reaction Rate Constant, Chemical Kinetics
Document Summary
Cars, trucks, and air quality compounds produced in internal combustion engines. Photochemical smog : a mixture of gases formed when sunlight interacts with. Note : products of some reactions are reactants in other reactions. Morning rush hour traffic creates no which then reacts with o 2 to form no 2. Photodecomposition of no 2 leads to high levels of o 3 in the afternoon. Study of rate of change of concentrations of substances involved in. Related to rates of change in concentration of reactants and products over chemical reactions. [no}final [no]initial t final t initial. [o2]final [o2]initial t final t initial t final t initial. Relative rates of consumption of reactants and formation of products based on. Average rate : change in concentration of reactant or product over a specific time. Determined graphically as tangential slope of concentration versus time. Calculate the average reaction rate for the time period between 15 s and 30 s using the data below:
