Chapter 6, Problem 39P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Whether the reaction with activation energy 10 kcal or 1 kcal corresponds to a faster reaction needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Activation energy of a reaction in chemistry is the amount of energy that must be provided to start a chemical reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Whether the reaction with equilibrium constant 10 or 100 corresponds to a faster reaction needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Equilibrium constant is related to a relationship between reactants and products of a specific reaction. It is a measurement for determine the completion of a reaction with equilibrium.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Whether the reaction with change in enthalpy -2 kcal/mol or +2 kcal/mol corresponds to a faster reaction needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Enthalpy of a reaction is the energy change occurs in the system, during the particular reaction. Enthalpy of a reaction is measured as kilojoules per mole (kJ mol-1) or kilocalories per mole (kcal mol-1).
