Temperature dependence of the rate of a reaction

1. Effect of temperature on reaction rate: ⇒ As the temperature increases, the average energy of the reaction increases, hence rate of reaction increases. ⇒ As a common rule, for every 10° rise of temperature, the rate of reaction will increase by 2 (or) 3 times of initial value. ⇒ According to Arrhenius concept: η Read more about Temperature dependence of the rate of a reaction[…]

Quantitative Aspects of Electrolysis

These are governed by the Faraday’s laws of electrolysis First law of Electrolysis: The amount of chemical change produced is proportional to the quantity of electric charge passing through an electrolytic cell. Greater the number of moles of electrons transferred, the greater the mass of the products. W α Q (charge) Charge = (current) ✕ time W Read more about Quantitative Aspects of Electrolysis[…]

Integrated Rate Equations

1. Zero order reactions: ⇒ Order of the reaction is zero. ⇒ The reaction in which the rate of reaction is independent of concentration of the reactants. ⇒ Rate of reaction remains constant during the course of reaction. ⇒ No concentration term in the rate law. A → Products Initially t = 0                   a           0 Read more about Integrated Rate Equations[…]
