series reactions

A complex reaction involving two series reactions can be of the type, ..

A complex reaction involving two series reactions can be of the type, A reacts to give B, which is then transformed to C. Both the elementary reactions (1) and (2) exhibit first - order kinetics, that is, For this reaction, [A] = [A] o exp (-k 1 t) ..

All organic compounds are made up of a progressively building chain of carbon atoms with a number of compounds having the same functional groups. Such a series of similarly constituted compounds are called a homologous series. Members of a homologous group are similar in struct..

F.F. Blackman (1905) demonstrated the presence of the dark reactions for the first time. It utilises the chemical energy temporarily stored in the products of light reaction. It is also called the Calvin cycle. It is a series of reactions taking place in a c..

The higher the metal in the series, the more reactive it is i.e., its reaction is fast and more exothermic. This also implies that the reverse reaction becomes more difficult i.e., the more reactive a metal, the more difficult it is to extract from its ore. The metal i..

The Reactivity Series of Metals - Although most metals are usually electropositive in nature and lose electrons in a chemical reaction they do not react with the same vigour or speed. Metals display different reactions towards different substances. The greater the ease..

>Simple reactions are those, which involve a single elementary reaction. The rate law can be written from the stoichiometry of the chemical equation. One such reaction is the gas phase reaction of ozone (O 3 ) with nitric oxide (NO). This bimolecular rea..

Displacement or Substitution Reaction - A substitution or displacement reaction is a chemical change in which atoms of one element replace the atoms of another element from the molecules of a compound. Elements which are higher in the Activity Series displace those ele..

Potassium, sodium, lithium and calcium react with cold water. Sodium reacts vigorously with cold water forming sodium hydroxide and hydrogen. Metals from magnesium to iron in the activity series of metals, react with steam (but not H 2 O) to form the metal oxide and hydrogen gas...
