Description
Did you know that you can compare a chemical reaction with your daily experience in the lunch line? Episode 24 recaps the reaction mechanism and how it relates to the rate law. It starts with a brief recap of factors affecting the rate of a reaction (1:28). A reaction itself can have several elementary steps that make up the overall reaction (2:00). The rate law of the reaction is determined by the slowest elementary step (3:55). Using a general example, episode 24 shows why you cannot use the overall stoichiometry to determine the rate law (4:18) and why termolecular reactions are rare (5:24).Question: (6:26) Catalysts can be part of elementary steps. How can you identify a catalyst?A. Being produced and used up.B. Shows up on reactant and product side.C. Shows up on reactant side.D. Shows up on product side.Thank you for listening to The APsolute RecAP: Chemistry Edition!(AP is a registered trademark of the College Board and is not affiliated with The APsolute RecAP.
