Collision Theory and Reaction Mechanism

Hello everyOne, soRry if this blog is late...

What we did in class this morning is that Ms. K helped us to answer all the questions on the sheets the she gave to us. about potential energy diagrams and factors affecting rate. Just look at the slideshow for the answers that you didnt get..

*It sticks to my mind that the addition of CATALYST increase the rate and the activation energy become lower, like what happened to the experiment of ms. K last wednesday.

Then, she gave a new sheet about Collision and Reaction Mechanism and its glad that she explained it very clear... Like theres some new terms that we need to remember, like the

->BIMOLECULAR it means that its a combining of two particles.
->SIMPLE REACTION is the reaction which place in one elementary step.
->COMPLEX REACTION is the reaction which take place in more than one step..
Hint: all Complex Reaction contain at least one reaction intermediate.
->REACTION INTERMEDIATES products of one reaction that immediately become reactants in another reaction.
->MECHANISM is the steps in which a reaction occurs.
->RDS or RATE DETERMINING STEP the step with the slowest rate.

Ms. K also left us an assignment, just to remind you guys its assignment #4.
I didnt wrote too much because all the details is in the slideshow, just look at it.
Thenkzz...
The next scribe would be phoebes3...
