Chemical Kinetics – Study Material
CHEMICAL KINETICS:
Chemical kinetics constitutes an important topic in physical chemistry. It concern itself with measurement of rates of reactions proceeding under given conditions of temperature, pressure and concentration. For more details click the PDF link given below.

- Effect of Temperature on Reaction
- Collision Theory
- Activation energy
- The Arrhenius Equation
Activation energy:
The excess energy that the reactant molecules having energy less than the threshold energy must acquire in order to react to yield products is known as activation energy. Thus, Activation Energy = Threshold energy-Energy actually possessed by molecules.
Collision Theory:
According to this theory, for chemical reactions to occur, there must be collisions between the reactant molecules. However, most of the collisions taking place between the molecules are ineffective,. The important postulate of the collision theory is-that only those collisions result in chemical reaction in which the colliding molecules are associated with a certain minimum energy called, the threshold energy.
