SOLUTION
A key reaction in the upper atmosphere is
O3(g) + O(g) 2O2(g)
The Ea(fwd) is 19 kJ, and the Hrxn (∆E) for the reaction is -392 kJ. Draw a reaction energy
diagram for this reaction, postulate a transition state, and calculate Ea(rev).

2HI(g) H2(g) + I2(g)
has rate constants of 9.51x10-9 L/mol*s at 500. K and 1.10x10-5 L/mol*s at 600. K.

Determine slope of tangent at t0 for
each plot
Compare initial rates when [A]
changes and [B] is held constant and
vice versa
Substitute initial rates, orders, and concentrations
into general rate law: rate = k [A]m[B]n
Use direct, ln or inverse plot to
find order
Rearrange to linear form and
graph
Find k at varied T
Overview
UA GenChem
Catalysts speed up reactions by altering the mechanism to lower the activation energy
barrier, but they are not consumed.

Imagine trying to get a bunch of cattle to where you want them to go without any
help…
“Cattle-ists”
Will they get there very
quickly on their own? Will they
take the shortest path do
get there? Is there a way to
help?
UA GenChem
What if there was someone there to herd the cattle and guide them along a more efficient
path?
“Cattle-ists”
The end result is the same – but
the reaction takes a more efficient path.

Enzymes are specialized organic
substances, composed of polymers of amino acids (proteins), that
act as catalysts to regulate the speed of
the many chemical reactions involved in
the metabolism of living organisms.

Summary Activity:Fireflies flash at a rate that is temperature dependent.
At 29 ˚C the average firefly flashes at a rate of 3.3 flashes every 10. seconds.
At 23 ˚C the average rate is 2.7 flashes every 10. seconds.
Use the Arrhenius equation to determine the activation energy (kJ/mol) for the flashing process.
UA GenChem
The activation energy of the firefly flashing process
is:
Ea = ___________ kJ/mol
