theory of chemical kinetics

. To sum it up, the kinetic theory of matter is based upon the following points: Matter consists of molecules. These are the smallest particles, which are capable of free existence and retain all the chemical properties of the parent substance. The molecules are always..

. Transition State explains the rate of reaction in term of formation of a transition state of reacting molecules. The formation of transition state requires energy of activation. Transition state theory connects kinetic rates with thermodynamic properties of reactants and the t..

Introduction - Processes by which substances are transformed to one or several products are called chemical reactions. Chemical processes that occur in the presence of light, like sunlight, are called photochemical reactions. These processes can occur naturally or under controll..

Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases - In order to explain the observed behaviour of gases, a model was proposed based on the molecular and kinetic concept of gas molecules. This model takes into account the particulate nature of matter and the constant movement of partic..

Kinetic Theory of Gases - The word 'Kinetic' means due to motion. The Kinetic Theory of Gases is based on the idea that gases consist of atoms and molecules moving ceaselessly and randomly with all possible velocities in all directions. Each of thes..

All matter is made up of particles called molecules. In normal circumstances it exists in three states. All the molecules of a given substance are alike in all respects. The molecules are separated from one another by the intermolecular space which is more than the diameter of the molecule ..

All the molecules of a gas are identical with respect to their shape and mass. The molecules of different gases are differen..

Boyle's law - At a given temperature, the pressure of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume. This is Boyle's law. From equation (vi), we have -----(a) As for a given gas, T , the value of is constant at a given temperature. In addition, for a given mass of the gas, m and N a..
