A catalyst is a substance that can speed up a reaction, but the substance itself is not changed chemically at the end of the reaction. 2. The way a catalyst speeds up a reaction is by lowering the activation energy Reactant Reactant Product Effect of Catalysts on Endothermic Reactions Catalyst Types 1. Homogeneous catalyst: catalyst which is in the same phase as the reactants. 2. Heterogeneous catalyst: the catalyst has a phase different from the reactants. 3. Autocatalyst: reaction products (products) that act as catalysts. 4. Biocatalyst: catalysts that work in the metabolic processes of living things, are called enzymes Reactant Product Catalyst Properties 1. Does not undergo any lasting change in reactions, but may be involved in reaction mechanisms. 2. Speed up the rate of reaction, but does not change the type or amount of reaction products. 3. Lowers the activation energy, but does not change the enthalpy change for the reaction. 4. Changing the mechanism by providing steps that have a lower. activation energy. 5. Specific, meaning that it can only catalyze certain reactions. 6. Only needed in small quantities. 7. Can be poisoned by certain substances.

In the reaction A + B + C D + E, obtained the following data: If the concentration A is fixed, the concentration of B and C each is raised twice, then the reaction rate is twice as large as. If the concentration of A and C each is raised twice, while the concentration B is fixed, then the reaction rate is eight times greater. If the concentration of A and B each is raised twice, while the concentration of C is fixed, the reaction rate is four times greater. Determine the total reaction order from the reaction (1) x – y = 2 (4) x + y = 2 + 2x = 4 x = 2 y = 0 (using equation number 4) z = 1 (using equation number 2) Ans. v = k [A]x [B]y [C]z [A] [B] [C] v 1 a b c v 2 a 2b 2c 2v 3 2a b 2c 8v 4 2a 2b c 4v We use the fast method: 2x.( 1 2 )y = 4 2x-y = 22 x – y = 2….(1) 2y.2z = 2 2y+z = 2 y + z = 1….(2) 2x. ( 1 2 )z = 2 2x-z = 2 x – z = 1….(3) We use the elimination method: (2) y + z = 1 (3) x – z = 1 + x + y = 2….(4) The total reaction order: x + y + z = 2 + 0 + 1 = 3 2 𝟏 𝟐 4 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 14. Use data from table below to establish the order of reaction: 2 HgCl2(aq) + C2O4 2- (aq) 2 Cl- (aq) + 2 CO2(g) + Hg2Cl2(s) with respect to HgCl2 dan C2O4 2- and also the overall order of the reaction. Ans. v = k [HgCl2]m [C2O4 2-]n We need to determine the values of m and n. In comparing experiment 2 and experiment 3, note that [HgCl2] is essentially doubled while [C2O4 2-]n is held constant. Note also that R2 = 2 x R3. Rather than use the actual concentrations and rates in the following rate equation, let’s work initially with their symbolic equivalents. R2 = k x [HgCl2]2 m x [C2O4 2-]2 n = k x (2 x [HgCl2]3)m x [C2O4 2-]3 n R3 = k x [HgCl2]3 m x [C2O4 2-]3 n 2m = 2, so m = 1 To determine the value of n, we can form the ratio R2/R1. Now [C2O4 2-] is double and [HgCl2] is held constant. We have value m = 1 R2 = k x [HgCl2]2 1 x [C2O4 2-]2 n = k x (0,105)1 x (2 x 0,15)n R1 = k x [HgCl2]1 1 x [C2O4 2-]1 n = k x (0,105)1 x (0,15)n 2n = 4, n = 2 First order in HgCl2 (m = 1), second order in C2O4 2- (n = 2) and third order overall (m + n = 1 + 2 = 3). 15.
