Chemistry
Unit 4
+ Reaction Rates
It’s the change in the amount of reactants or products per unit time
Continuous Rate Method

If it’s in the Rate
Equation then it’s the
Rate Determining Step
Initial Rate Method

1st Order:
•
•

Rate = k[X]1
Constant Half Lives

2nd Order:
• Rate = k[Y]2
• Increasing Half Lives
0 Order:
• Rate = k[Z]0

1o Halogenoalkane + Hydroxide = SN2
3o Halogenoalkane + Hydroxide = SN1
+ Nucleophilic Substitution

+ Heterogeneous Catalysts
• In a different state to the reactants
• Large surface area as they’re usually powder or a mesh
• Easily separated from products & excess reactants

• Can be poisoned:
• Adsorbs too strongly to surface of catalyst and doesn’t allow other
reactants to adsorb to the catalyst
• e.g. – Nickel in Hydrogenation of Vegetable Oil
– Platinum in catalytic converters in cars

Adsorb – forms a
temporary bond when
something sticks to a
surface

How do they work?
-

Reactant adsorbed onto surface of catalysts at the active site
Interaction between reactant & catalyst
Reaction occurs from the interaction
Products are desorbed – breaks off catalyst
Homogeneous Catalyst is
when catalyst is in the same
state to reactants
+ Entropy
Entropy change of a reaction is measure of order or disorder
The order within is a substance is how the quanta of energy are arranged

Reaction will occur if overall entropy is increasing, from order to disorder
If entropy is +ve then reaction will tend to occur
But doesn’t exist
Ordered
Disordered

More disorder = more +ve SΘ
Solid  Ordered
Liquid  Disordered
Gas  Very Disordered
More Complex/Moles  More Disordered

+ Carbonyls
Carbonyl Group

Ethanal

Propanone

-

Aldehydes can be oxidised
- Orange  Green

Ethanal + HCN

Nucleophilic Addition

2 methyl 2 hydroxypropanenitrile

2 hydroxypropanenitrile

In a lab HCN made by reacting KCN(s) + H2SO4
+ Carboxylic Acids

Very soluble in H2O
Longer chain, less soluble

H-Bonding in Pure Ethanoic Acid (Dimer Shape)
Sodium
Ethanoate
Acid + Alcohol  Ester + H2O

Weak acid –
Partially Dissociate
Identifying Carboxylic Acids:

Add Sodium Carbonate – effervescence if +ve

Reaction with PCl5:

Add NH3 white
smoke = +ve

CH3COOH + PCl5  POCl3 + HCl + CH3COCl

Ethanoyl Chloride

Formed from:
- Oxidising a 1°
- Hydrolysis of Nitrile (Reflux
with dil HCl and distil off)
+ Esters

Acid Hydrolysis:
- Reflux with dil HCl or H2SO4

Dicarboxylic Acid + Diol Alcohol  Polyester

Base Hydrolysis:
- Reflux with dil Alkali (e.g. NaOH)

Transesterification
+ Soap & Triglycerides

Fats solid at RTP
Triglycerides have lower melting point due to less regular shape
Hydrogenation:
- Nickel catalyst @ 150°C
- Unsaturated  Saturated FA
- Solidifies fats
+ Acyl Chlorides

Ethanoyl Chloride

Reaction with H2O:
CH3COCl(l) + H2O(l)  CH3COOH(l) + HCl(g)

Reaction with Alcohol:
-amide

CH3COCl(l) + CH3CH2OH(l)  CH3COOCH2CH3(l) + HCl(g)
Ethyl Ethanoate

Reaction with Ammonia:
CH3COCl(l) + NH3(aq)  CH3CONH2(aq) + HCl(g)
Ethanamide
N-“substituted”-Amide

Reaction with Ethylamine:
CH3COCl(l) + C2H5NH2(aq)  CH3CONHCH3CH2(aq) + HCl(g)
N-Ethyl-Ethanamide
+ Isomerism/Optical Isomers
Only occurs when chiral carbon present:
- Carbon with 4 different groups attached

Enantiomers/Optical Isomers
Mirror

Racemic Mixture:
Contains equal amounts of each enantiomer
+ Equilibria (Kc)
Dynamic Equilibria:
- The forwards reaction and back reaction are at the same rate so
there’s no overall change in yield of products or reactants in a closed system
+ Kp
+ Effects on Equilibria
Adding a catalyst:
• Equilibrium constants not affected
• Position of equilibria not affected
• Speeds up forward & backward reaction at same rate
Change in concentration:
• Equilibrium constants not affected
• Adding reactant shifts equilibria right
• Adding product shifts equilibria left
Change in pressure:
• Equilibria shifts to side with fewest molecules
• Equilibrium constants not affected

Increase in temperature:
• Endothermic = +ve shifts right, more product produced
• Exothermic = -ve
shifts left, more reactant produced
• Kc & Kp:
• Increases if endothermic
• Decreases if exothermic
+ Uses in Industry
They alter conditions to produce maximum yield

Requiring least amount of energy

Often looking for new more environmentally friendly catalysts

e.g.

Ethene + H2O  Ethanol
Sped up by using catalyst (Silica soaked in H3PO4)

Remove product as it’s being formed
+ Acid Theories
H+ = H3O+
Arrhenius:

Lewis:

- Acids are H+ producers
- Bases are OH- producers in H2O
- Only used in aqueous solutions

- Acid is an electron pair acceptor
- Bases is an electron pair donor

Bronsted-Lowry:
- Acids are proton donors
- Bases are proton acceptors
HA + H2O

H3O+ + A-

Conjugate Pairs

Amphoteric Substances:
• It acts a base or an acid

A base has a lone pair of
electrons which can form a
dative covalent bond with a H+

H2O & HA are Acids & Bases as they give & accept H+
HA is the acid & A- is it’s conjugate base
H2O is the base & H3O+ is it’s conjugate acid

H3O+

pH = - log 10 [ H+ ]
[ H+ ] = 10-pH

Kw @298k = 1x10-14

Excess [ H+ ]

Weak Acids

pKa = -log10( Ka )
Larger pKa = Weaker Acid
