TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]=...

Hi, I'm following an introduction course to chemistry and I am reviewing the chapter on Chemical kinetics. It's shown that the reaction speed for a certain component of a general chemical equation such as aA +bB <-> cC + dD , might be expressed as v = k[A]m[ B]m. I was wondering where it does...

PROBLEM Here from the conservation of angular momentum I found angular velocity just before impact, $$ H_1 = 0 $$ $$ H_2 = I_0\omega + mV_0d $$ $$ H_2 = 66\omega + 76.(1.2).(0.87)$$ $$ H_1 = H_2 $$ $$ \omega = 1.202 rad/s $$ But I couldn't solve it to find joint force. Thanks in advance,

Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermokinetics says that "thermokinetics" studies the rate of chemical decomposition, whereas a dictionary https://www.yourdictionary.com/thermokinetic gets no further than saying that it combines thermodynamics and kinetics, and a book on it...

Relevant equations : Kindly advise whether this approach is correct, I am not sure whether the friction force should be considered.

Is there any evidence to support the idea of subquantum kinetics and alternative it provides to the Big Bang? Most publications which touch on it seem to link back to Dr. LaViolette so that seems odd to me. Has this idea been disproven or is there a chance this is a Continental Drift, Alfred...

last week i did a chemistry lab. i mixed NaOH 0.03M with equal part of methyl violet and mesured aborbance in a spectrophotometer. then i did the same thing with a 0.05M and methyl violet i did today the graphs and got the k' =-0.1647 for the first solution and k'=-0.4022 for the second...

Since the mass of both vehicles is the same, it's possible to calculate Ki which happens to be 512,5J and from there, multiply it by 0,25 since 75% of the energy is gone and I end up with 128,125J. Now my problem is that for the velocity, I have: 25,0 + -20,0 = V1 + V2 which is 5,00 = V1 + V2...

I'm trying to simulate a simple series reaction stochastically using Gillespie's algorithm. I found this file: What is this 'propensity function'? Say for example I have the simple reactions: A --(k1)--> R R--(k2)--> S are these 'propensity functions' the rates (a wild guess)? I mean; α1 =...

Hello The table below shows some kinetics values for two types of the GOD enzyme, the free and the immobilised. How can I comprehend what these values mean? I want to know how many grams of substrate are 'converted' per sec per mg of enzyme. I assume the substrate concentration plays role so...

Hi, I'm having trouble with this simple reaction (1): $$A + A → I$$ with ##R = kC^2_A## I'm assuming it takes place in a Batch reactor so the mass balance should yield: $$\frac {dC_A} {dt} = -2R = -2kC^2_A$$ But, as I recall (I should be wrong though)...

Hi everybody, Given a generic reaction ## Reagents ↔ Products ## the velocity of the reaction is ##R = R_{right} - R_{left} ## To take in account that the velocity of the reaction will slow if approaching the equilibrium we say that $$ R = R_{right}(1 - \frac K K_{eq}) $$ Although it seems...
