Integrated Rate Laws Finally a use for calculus! Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 1 What is a rate? It’s a “delta/delta”! Rate of reaction = Δπππππππ‘πππ‘πππ Δπ‘πππ In other words, it is a differential. As you MAY recall from calculus, if you take a small enough delta (difference) you end up with a derivative! Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 2 A rate as a derivative Rate of reaction = Δπππππππ‘πππ‘πππ Δπ‘πππ If Δtime is small enough, we have: −π[πππππ‘πππ‘] π ππ‘π ππ πππππ‘πππ = ππ‘ Why “-”? Because you are losing reactants and the rate should always be positive. Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 3 Let’s look at the rate law Rate = k[A] −π[π΄] π ππ‘π ππ πππππ‘πππ = = π[π΄] ππ‘ This is actually an integrable equation. [Don’t worry, this isn’t a math class…it’s just masquerading as one!] Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 4 Solving the equation I’ll show you how to solve it, but it is only the solution that you need to know. −π[π΄] = π[π΄] ππ‘ We collect the [A] on one side and get: π[π΄] = −πππ‘ [π΄] Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 5 Solving the equation π[π΄] = −πππ‘ [π΄] Now you can integrate both sides: π΄ πππππ π΄ ππππ‘πππ π[π΄] =− [π΄] πππππ π‘πππ πππ‘ π‘πππ=0 Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 6 Solving the equation π΄ πππππ π΄ ππππ‘πππ ln π΄ π[π΄] =− [π΄] πππππ −ln π΄ πππππ π‘πππ πππ‘ π‘πππ=0 ππππ‘πππ = −ππ‘ This is the only equation we really need. This is called the “integrated rate law”…well, because we integrated the rate law. ο Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 7 What it means… ln π΄ πππππ − ln π΄ ππππ‘πππ = −ππ‘ What it means is that the concentration at any time decays logarithmically from the initial concentration. If I rearrange the equation a little: ln π΄ πππππ = −ππ‘ + ln π΄ ππππ‘πππ What does this look like to you? Yes, it is the equation of a straight line (y=mx+b)! Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 8 ln π΄ πππππ = −ππ‘ + ln π΄ ππππ‘πππ If you know k and the initial concentration, you could calculate the concentration at any time. For example, if I know k=0.015 s-1 and I start with 0.250 M A, how much A is left after 1 minute? Beware the units. 1 minutes = 60 seconds. Since k is in s1, I need my time to be in seconds. Plug and chug, baby! Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 9 Using the integrated rate law ln π΄ πππππ = −ππ‘ + ln π΄ ln[A]final = -0.015s-1*60 s + ln(0.250 M) ππππ‘πππ ln[A]final = -2.286 [A]final = e-2.286 = 0.102 M You can see the power of the integrated rate law. I can determine the remaining concentration of reactants at any second in time! (And, using stoichiometry, I could determine the concentration of products at any second in time!) Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 10 Compare the integrated rate law to the rate law ln π΄ πππππ = −ππ‘ + ln π΄ ππππ‘πππ Rate = k[A] For the same problem, the rate law only allows me to calculate the initial rate of the reaction: Rate = (0.015 s-1)[0.250 M) = 0.00375 M/s I could also calculate the RATE for any specific concentration. But I can’t know how long it takes me to get to that new concentration. Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 11 Other uses of the integrated rate law ln π΄ πππππ = −ππ‘ + ln π΄ ππππ‘πππ It’s a straight line. Scientists LOVE LOVE LOVE straight lines! If you have a reaction that you KNOW is 1st order, you could measure the [A] at a number of different times and plot the data and you’ll get a straight line where the slope=-k. So you could use the equation to find the rate constant. Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 12 For example, suppose I monitor [A] Time (seconds) [A] (M) 0.25 0.20 0.17 0.075 0 10 20 60 Since this is a first order reaction, the data should obey my integrated rate law. So I plot the ln[A] vs time and I should get a straight line. Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 13 For example, suppose I monitor [A] Time (seconds) 0 10 20 60 [A] (M) ln[A] 0.25 0.20 0.17 0.075 -1.386 -1.609 -1.772 -2.590 Now, I plot the last column against the first column and put the best fit straight line on it. Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 14 LOOK! IT’S A POINT! IT’S A PLANE! NO!!!

I can also make a graph to find out IF it is 1st order.

Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 19 This works for other orders of reaction also. For a second order reaction: Rate = k[A]2 You get an integrated rate law 1 π΄ = ππ‘ + πππππ 1 π΄ ππππ‘πππ Same idea, it’s a straight line (y = mx+b) where: Slope = k Intercept = 1 π΄ ππππ‘πππ Text 692019 and Questions to 37607 20 Hey!
