Effect of Temperature

• Increasing the temperatureof the reaction increases the number of effective collisions by both increasing the total number of collisions (because molecules move faster) and increasing the fraction of collisions that are effective (because the average kinetic energy is higher).

Suppose the collision rate between molecules A and B at 25°C is 10,000 collisions per second. The number of effective collisions at this same temperature is 100 collisions per second. How will each of the following affect the total number of collisions and the fraction of effective collisions between molecules A and B?

– The temperature decreases

– The concentration of reactant B decreases

Page 20: Effect of Concentration - WordPress.com · 2012-02-29 · Effect of Concentration. Effect of Temperature •Increasing the temperature ... reaction is 102 kJ/mol. N 2 O 5 (g) 2NO

When the temperature decreases• Average kinetic energy decreases• Average velocity of the molecules decreases

Should decrease the number of collisions and the fraction of effective collisions!

Therefore, we expect the total number of collisions to be less than 10,000 and the fraction of effective collisions to be less than 100.

Page 21: Effect of Concentration - WordPress.com · 2012-02-29 · Effect of Concentration. Effect of Temperature •Increasing the temperature ... reaction is 102 kJ/mol. N 2 O 5 (g) 2NO

When the concentration of reactant B decreases– The number of collisions between A and B decreases

Less B molecules can make contact with A molecules.

– The fraction of effective collisions should remain the same

The average kinetic energy and temperature of the molecules emains the same.

Therefore, we expect the total number of collisions to be less than 10,000 and the number of effective collisions to be less than 100, but still one-tenth of the total number of collisions (same fraction as before).
