Worksheet in General Chemistry 2

Grade 11
Third Quarter
WEEK 6 – DAY 1

MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCY

Describe how various factors influence the rate of a reaction.

OBJECTIVE
To gain an understanding of the four main factors that influence reaction rate.

WHAT’S IN
There are four factors that influence the rate of chemical reaction.
1. Nature of the reactants
2. Concentration of the reactants.
3. Temperature
4. The presence of a catalyst.

WHAT’S NEW
Activity 1: Complete Me!
Directions: Complete the following table by indicating whether each of the
following scenarios would either increase or decrease the rate of reaction. The
first one has been done for you.

SCENARIO INCREASE OR DECREASE

1.Adding heat Increase

2.Removing heat Decrease
3.Adding a catalyst Increase
4.Diluting a solution Decrease
5.Removing an enzyme (catalyst) Decrease
6.Lowering the temperature Decrease
7.Increasing the temperature Increase
8.Decreasing the surface area Decrease
9.Increasing the concentration of solution Increase
10.Breaking a reactant down into smaller pieces Increase

Activity 2. Complete Me!
Directions: Complete the following table by indicating which factor would have
the greatest impact on the rate of reaction. Choose from the concentration,
temperature, and catalyst. The first one has been done for you.

FACTOR THAT HAS THE GREATEST

SCENARIO IMPACT ON THE RATE OF REACTION

1. Blowing air on a campfire to help get it

going. concentration
2. Protein is broken down in the stomach
Catalyst
by the enzyme
3. A woolly mammoth is found perfectly
Temperature
preserved, near the arctic circle.
4. More bubbles appear when a
concentrated solution of hydrochloric acid Concentration
is added to a magnesium strip than when
a dilute solution of the acid is added.
5. Exhaust from a car engine passes
through a catalytic converter changing
Catalyst
most of the poisonous nitrogen oxides into
nitrogen gas and oxygen gas.

Concentration
6. A dust explosion occurs in a saw mill.

 WEEK 6 – DAY 2

MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCY

Differentiate zero, first, and second order reactions.

OBJECTIVE
Classify chemical reaction order using kinetics.

WHAT’S IN
The order of reaction refers to the power dependence of the rate on the
concentration of each reactant.

WHAT’S NEW
Activity 1: Complete me!
Directions: Write the order of the reactant in the following chemical reactions:

CHEMICAL REACTION ORDER OF REACTANT

1. 3 NO(g) N2O(g) + NO2(g)
rate = k [NO]2 Second order with respect to [NO]

2. 2 NO2(g) + F2(g) 2NO2F(g) First order with respect to [NO2], First order
rate = k[NO2] [F2] with respect to [F2], second overall order

3. 2 NO2(g) 2 NO(g) + O2(g)

rate= k[NO2]2 Second order with respect to [NO2]

4. H2O2(aq) + 3 I-(aq) + 2H+(aq) 2H2O(l) + I3- First order with respect to [H2O2], First
rate= [H2O2][I-] order with respect to [I],
Second order overall
5. O3 (g) + Cl (g) O2(g) + ClO (g)
First order with respect to [O3], First order
rate = [O3][Cl] with respect to [Cl], Second order Overall

WHAT’S MORE
Activity 2: Complete me!
Directions: Complete the table by writing the rate law in the following chemical
reactions.

CHEMICAL REACTION RATE LAW

1. 2 NO(g) + O2 (g) 2NO2(g) rate = k[NO]2[O2]

2. 2 NO(g) + 2H2(g) 2N2(g) + 2H2O(g) rate = k[NO]2[H2]

3. 2 N2O5 (g) 4NO2(g) +O2(g) rate = k[NO2O5]

4. CH3CN CH3NC rate= k[CH3CN]

5. H2 + I2 2HI rate= k[H2][I2]
