Models For Preexponentials




Collision theory (old collision theory) – simple
model for preexponential - ~1013/sec,
~1013Å3/sec, ~1013A6/sec
Transition state theory – slightly better model
for preexponential – bimolecular (small
correction to collision theory).
RRKM – better model for preexponential –
unimolecular-explains rate constraints at
1018/sec
Molecular Dynamics & Tunneling – accurate
method, but time consuming

Key Predictions Of Collision Theory




Preexponentials always between 1013 and
1014/sec for small molecules
No special configurations effects
Lighter species (i.e. H atoms tend to react
faster).
Larger molecules have larger cross
sections than smaller molecules

Why Does Collision Theory Fail For Reaction

Reaction 7.30 requires a special collision geometry:
•
