INTRODUCTION
Some chemical reaction occurs within
few micro seconds or milli seconds due
to formation of reaction intermediate
(carbocation, carboanion or free radicals).
But some reaction occur in few year or
months because breaking of strong ionic or
metallic bond is a slow process. Under
chemical kinetics we would study that
reaction which occurs at measurable rate.
In Chemical Kinetics we would be able to
understand the velocity as well as different
factors which would effect the chemical
reaction. Under this we will be studying
the mechanism of the reaction. Here
mechanism of reaction means how
reactants are converted into product or in
how many intermediate steps reactant is
converted into product. And which
intermediate step is rate determining step.

1. RATE OF REACTION
Rate of a reaction is defined as the increase in molar concentration of a product per unit
time or decrease in molar concentration of a reactant per unit time. Molar concentration is
normally measured in moles per litre, the rate of a reaction is specified in mole per litre per
time.
1.1
AVERAGE RATE
x
is known as average rate, where x is the change in concentration in
t
t time. As we have discussed in chemical equilibrium rate of change of concentration of
reactant decreases as the reaction proceeds. This means that rate of change of concentration
is not constant. If the time interval is quite large then average rate will show large
deviations from the actual rate.
The quantity
1.2
INSTANTANEOUS RATE
In order to precisely define rate time interval t is made smaller
i.e. instantaneous rate = average rate as t approaches zero.

ELEMENTARY REACTION
An elementary reaction is a single molecular event, such as collision of molecules resulting
in a reaction. The set of elementary reactions whose overall effect is given by the net
chemical equation is called reaction mechanism.
Let us consider an example for the reaction of nitrogen dioxide with carbon monoxide.
NO 2(g) + CO(g)
NO (g) + CO 2(g) [net chemical equation]
(i)
(ii)
NO3(g) + CO (g)
NO 2(g) + CO 2(g) [Elementary reaction]
(iii)
Thus net reaction (i) is obtained by the combination of two elementary reaction (ii) and (iii)
and NO3 is a reaction intermediate as it is produced and consumed during the course of
reaction.
2.1
MOLECULARITY
It is defined as the number of molecules taking part on the reactant side of an elementary
reaction. A unimolecular reaction is an elementary reaction involves one reactant molecule,
a bimolecular reaction is an elementary reaction that involves two reactant molecules.

[law of mass action states that rate of reaction is directly proportional to the product of the
active masses of reactants raised to some powers]

ORDER OF REACTION
It is defined as the sum of exponents or powers which are raised to concentration terms in
the rate law expression of a reaction.

UNITS OF k
In general rate law for a nth order reaction can be written as
dC
= kCn
dt
Where k is rate constant, k is characteristic of a reaction at a given temperature. It changes
only when temperature changes and n is the order of reaction.
k=
dC / dt
Cn
Units of k: (concentration)1ntime1
For a zero order reaction (n = 0)
Units of k = mol/L/s
For a first order reaction (n = 1)
Units of k = time1
For a second order reaction (n = 2)
Units of k = (mol/l)1time1 = l/mol/s

Since H2O2 is undergoing self decomposition so quantity of H2O2 present in a definite
volume will also go on decreasing, KMnO4 is reacting with H2O2 so titre value i.e. volume
of KMnO4 used will also go on decreasing.

Hence the volume of KMnO4 used, at zero time corresponds to the initial
concentration a and the volume used after time t, corresponds to (a - x) at that

If some inert liquid is used as solvent then concentration of water can be changed and rate
changes on changing the concentration of water. The reaction then becomes second order.
Rate of this reaction is also proportional to the concentration of catalyst H+. But
concentration of catalyst remains constant during the reaction. If we change concentration
of water as well as that of H+ then reaction becomes 3rd order.
Rate [C12 H 22 O11 ][H 2 O][H + ]
But under ordinary conditions H 2O and H + are constant so,
Rate [C12 H 22 O11 ]
The initial solution of cane sugar is destrorotatory but the product mixture is laevorotatory.
Since the reaction involves inversion in the sign of rotation, ths is known as inversion of

Now according to the definition of the catalyst are substances which increases the rate of
reaction by their presence but their presence is not required for the reaction to occur. Now
according to this definition, absence of H + should not let the reaction to happen, therefore
the rate of reaction in the absence of H + should be, Rate = K[ester]
If [H + ] < 1 M then rate of reaction would becomes less than the rate which we had in its
absence. In order to avoid above controversies, we are required to go through the
functioning of catalyst.
There are two types of catalyst.
a)
Reactant catalyst
b) Non-reactant catalyst.
Former increases the rate of reaction by existing in the rate law. Therefore, in the absence
of reactant catalyst the reaction rate will be zero i.e. no reaction will take place.
The non-reacting catalyst on the other hand do not exist in the rate expression. Changing
the concentration of non-reacting catalyst has no effect on the rate. These catalyst increase
the rate of reaction by either decreasing activation energy or by increasing Arrhneius
constant.

Initial Rate Method
In this method concentration of one of the reactants is varied by a known factor and its
effect on the initial rate of the reaction is studied for example if the rate doubles on
doubling the concentration of a reactant then order with respect to that reactant will be
1. If rate becomes four times on doubling the concentration then order with respect to
that reactant will be two. This way by changing the concentration of all the reactants
one by one and keeping the concentrations of rest all reactants constant we can find
order with respect to each of reacting species.

STABILITY OF NUCLEI
At some point, you may have wondered, If positive charges repel one another, how is it
possible for protons to be packed so closely in the nuclei of atoms ? The answer is that
there are attractive nuclear forces that are much stronger than electrostatic forces. The
strengths of these forces are closely related to the numbers of protons and neutrons in a
nucleus. We begin with some observations about the naturally occurring stable nuclides.
32

NARAYANA
(i) About 160 stable nuclides have an even number of protons and an even number of
neutrons, for example, 126 C
(ii) About 50 stable nuclides have an even number of protons and an odd number of
neutrons, for example, 25
12 Mg .
(iii) About 50 stable unclides have an odd number of protons and an even number of
neutrons, for example, 199 F .
(iv) Only 4 stable nuclides have an odd number of protons and an odd number of neutrons.
They are 12 H, 36 Li, 105 B, and 147 N .
One theoretical approach to nuclear stability is the nuclear shell theory. In simplest terms,
this theory proposes that the protons and the neutrons each exist in shells within the
nucleus. This is much like the existence of electrons in shells outside the nucleus. The
similarity extends to the special stability associated with the closing of shells, similar to
what is seen with the noble gases in electrons configuration. In the nuclear shell theory, a
special stability is associated with nuclei that have any of the following numbers as
numbers of protons or neutrons.
2, 8, 20, 28, 50, 82, 126
These numbers are called magic numbers because scientists recognized their significance
in relation to nuclear stability before they had developed a theory to explain them.
One observation consistent with these magic numbers is the fact that alpha particles are
very stable; they have 2 protons and 2 neutrons and are doubly magic. Another
observation is that tin (Z = 50) has ten naturally occurring stable nuclides, more than any
other element. The magic number of protons (50) seems to allow for a greater variation in
the number of neutrons in the tin nucleus than in others. Also, the uranium-238 radioactive
decay series terminates in the nuclide 20826 Pb ; the uranium-235 series, in 20827 Pb ; and the
thorium-232 series, in
lead (Z = 82);
208
82
208
82
A crucial factor in the stability of a nucleus is the ratio of the neutron number (N) to the
proton number (Z). Some nuclides of the lightest elements have an N/Z ratio of 1, and as a
group these nuclides have an average ratio slightly greater than 1. Examples of nuclides in
27
39
40
Al, 19
K, and 20
Ca . Nuclides with Z > 20 require a large number
this group are 42 He, 186 O, 13
of neutrons than protons to moderate the effect of increasing proton repulsions. For
133
209
example, the N/Z ratio in 56
26 Fe is 30/26 = 1.15; in 55 Cs it is 78/55 = 1.42, and in 83 Bi ,
126/83 = 1.52. For nuclides with Z > 83, the protons repulsions are too large to be
overcome by proton-neutron interactions, and the nuclides are all radioactive.
The general pattern for nuclear stability in terms of neutron and proton numbers is shown
in figure, a graph of neutron number (N) versus proton number (Z). All of the naturally
occurring stable nuclides are indicated by dots within the belt labeled the belt of stability.
However, other nuclides in this belt that are not shown are radioactive. Also all nuclides
33

NARAYANA
falling outside the belt are radioactive, and their mode of decay is one that brings the
nuclides formed in the decay process into the belt. Nuclides above the belt decay by beta
emission, and those below the belt by positron emission and electron capture. Many of the
nuclides in the upper right corner decay by alpha emission. If the numbers 114 and 184 are
also magic numbers, as some scientists think they are, there might be a small island of
stability centered on the nuclide with Z = 114 and N = 184. This nuclide may someday be
synthesized, and there have even been unsuccessful attempts to find element 114 in natural
sources.

Sn : This nuclide has 50 protons and (118 50) = 68 neutrons. This is an eveneven combination, the most common for stable nuclides. Also, the neutron :
proton ratio of 68:50 lies within the belt of stability so 11508 Sn is non-radioactive.

Pa : Atomic number 91 exceeds the limit for the naturally occurring stable

Mn : This nuclide has 25 protons and (54 25) = 29 neutrons. This is an oddodd combination found only in four stable nuclides of low atomic numbers. We
should expect that it is radioactive.

MODE OF DECAY
Alpha-particle emission : An alpha (a ) particle has the same composition as a helium
nucleus : two protons and two neutrons. Thus an a particle has a mass of 4 u and a charge
of 2+. Because they carry a positive charge, a particles are deflected in electric and
magnetic fields. The penetrating power of alpha particles through matter is low; the
particles can generally be stopped by a sheet of paper. The symbol for an alpha particles is
4
2 He . We can represent a -particle emission with a nuclear equation, as in the radioactive
decay of uranium-238.

When a nucleus emits an alpha particles, its atomic number decreases by 2 and its mass
number decreases by 4. The new nuclide is that of a different element than the decaying
nuclide.
Beta-particles emission : Beta ( - ) particles are electrons. Like all electrons, they have
very little mass and carry a charge of 1. Beta particles are deflected in electric and
magnetic fields, but in the opposite direction from alpha particles. Beta particles are more
penetrating than a particles. They can pass through aluminum foil 2 to 3 mm thick. The
symbol for a beta particle is -01 e .
Although an atomic nucleus contains the protons and neutrons that make up an alpha
particle, a nucleus does not contain electrons. Instead, a neutron in converted to a proton
and an electron, represented in the following nuclear equation.

Because the atomic number represents the positive charge on a particle, the neutron has an
atomic number of 0 (no charge). The electron has the equivalent of an atomic number of
1; it carries the same charge as a proton, but negative in sign. An example of a radioactive
decay that produces beta particles is shown below :

number is unchanged. The new nuclide is that of a different element than the decaying
nuclide.

When a nucleus emits a gamma ray, both its atomic number and mass number remain
constant. The new and old nuclide are of the same element. As we would expect for a form
of electromagnetic radiation, gamma rays are unaffected by electric and magnetic fields.
Positron emission : Positrons are particles having the same mass as electrons but carrying
a charge of 1+. They are sometimes called positive electrons and referred to as b+
particles. Their penetrating power through matter is very limited because when a positron
comes into contact with an electron, the two particles annihilate each other and are
converted to two gamma rays. Positrons are formed in the nucleus through the conversion
of a proton to a neutron and a positron.

When a decaying nucleus emits a positron, its atomic number decreases by 1 and its mass
number is unchanged. The new nuclide is that of a different element from the decaying
nuclide.
Electron capture : Electron capture (EC) is a process in which the nucleus absorbs an
electron from an inner electronic shell, usually the first or second. An X ray is released
when an electron from a higher quantum level drops to fill the level vacated by the
captured electron. Once inside the nucleus, the captured electron. Once inside the nucleus,
the captured electron combines with a proton to form a neutron.

The result of electron capture is the same as positron emission. The atomic number of the
nucleus decreases by 1, and the mass number is unchanged. The new nuclide is that of a
different element than the decaying nuclide.

Solution :

Zr to undergo ?
When we check the belt of stability at Z = 40, we see that a nuclide with N = 44
lies below the belt. This confirms that the nuclide is radioactive. We would expect
a decay that moves the neutron:proton ratio closer to the belt. This means
converting a proton to a neutron. The atomic number goes down by one, and the
mass number remains the same. These changes are achieved either by positron
emission or electron capture.

NUCLEAR FISSION
Splitting of a nucleus into lighter nucleus is known as nuclear fission. U 235 isotope is
unstable and when it is hited by slow moving neutrons, it splits into a number of fragments,
each of which has mass smaller that that of Uranium with the evolution of large amount of
energy. This process is called nuclear fission.

It has been observed that during nuclear fission, the sum of the masses of the products
formed is slightly less than the masses of target species and bombarding neutrons. This loss
is known as mass defect. This loss in mass is converted to energy. Loss in lamu produces
931.48 Mev energy.

NUCLEAR FUSION
What would you thing of constructing one giant nuclear reactor out in space that would
transmit abundant energy to Earth almost forever ? Well, thats exactly what we earthlings
have in our sun, 92 million miles away. The sun is powered by the fusion of atomic nuclei,
and its fuel supplymostly 11 H will last for billions of years.

Before they will fuse, however, the nuclei of deuterium and tritium must be forced
extremely close together. And because the positively charged nuclei repel one another so
strongly, close approach requires that the nuclei have enormously high thermal energies. At
the required temperature, gases are completely ionized into a mixture of atomic nuclei and
electrons known as plasma. A temperature of over 40,000,000 K is necessary to initiate
self-sustaining fusiona nuclear reaction that releases more energy than it takes to get it
started. Another requirement is that the plasma be confined at an enormously high density
long enough for the fusion to plasma be confined at an enormously high density long
enough for the fusion to occur. Moreover, this confinement must be done without the
plasma contacting the walls of the reactor, where it would immediately lose heat and thus
its capability to fuse. One method is to confine the plasma in a magnetic field.

Carbon dating is based upon the fact that radio carbon 14 is produced in the atmosphere
by the action of cosmic rays C14 is a emitter with a half life of 5730 years. Its rate of
formation has been constant so the atmosphere has an equilibrium concentration of C14
corresponding to nearly 16 disintegration per minute per gram of carbon. All living plants
and animals contains this equilibrium concentration but when a plant or animal dies no
further exchange between it and environment takes place and C14 content start decreasing
as a result of radio active decay. After 5730 years there will remain only 8 disintegration
per minute per gram of carbon. By measuring the activity of a fresh piece and the old piece,
the age of old piece may be determined.

Ozone is prepared in laboratory by passing silent electric discharge through pure and dry oxygen in
an apparatus known as ozoniser. This conversion from oxygen to ozone is a reversible and endothermic
reaction. When oxygen is subjected to an ordinary electric discharge, most of the O3 produced will
get decomposed. When any insulating material such as glass, is inserted in the space between the
two electrodes and high current density is applied, silent electric discharge passes on between the
two electrodes. By this process no spark is produced and much less heat is generated, and as a
result the decomposition of the produced ozone is much retarded.
The decomposition of ozone is believed to occur by the following mechanism:
