Interpretation:
Two reactions those are very slow and two reactions those are very fast have to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Rate of a reaction: It represents the speed at which a
Slow reaction: In slow reactions the rate of reaction is very slow. It means the conversion of substrates (reactants) to targets (products) takes long time over days, even years also.
Fast reaction: In fast reactions the rate of reaction is very high. It means the conversion of substrates (reactants) to targets (products) takes very less time over in seconds, minutes or hours.

- Based on the diagram in Exercise 12.83, which of the reactions has the fastest rate? Which has the slowest rate?arrow_forwardConsider the decomposition reaction 2X2Y+ZThe following graph shows the change in concentration with respect to time for the reaction. What does each of the curves labeled 1, 2, and 3 represent?arrow_forwardDefine these terms: (a) unimolecular reaction (b) bimolecular reaction (c) elementary reaction (d) overall reactionarrow_forward
- For each of the following pairs of reaction diagrams, identify which of the pair is catalyzed:arrow_forwardConsider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.arrow_forwardWhen every collision between reactants leads to a reaction, what determines the rate at which the reaction occurs?arrow_forward
