Theory of Absolute Reaction Rate The theoretical approach to the calculation of the rates of reaction has been made from a point of view totally…

Chain Reactions One type of complex reaction is the chain reaction. These reactions take place by way of a very reactive intermediate such as a…

Unimolecular Reaction: Lindemann’s Mechanism The collision theory gives a fairly satisfactory account of bimolecular reactions. The difficulty was, however, encountered in explaining the formation of…

Molecularity with Rate-determining Step The molecularity is the number of particles (molecules, atoms or ions) on the reactant side of an elementary reaction. We do…

Molecularity with Bimolecular Step The molecularity is the number of particles (molecules, atoms or ions) on the reactant side of an elementary reaction. We do…

Molecularity and Order of Reactions The molecularity is the number of particles (molecules, atoms or ions) on the reactant side of an elementary reaction. We…

Rate Law and Mechanism of Reaction Mechanism of Reaction is the step by step sequence of elementary reactions by which overall chemical change occurs. It…

Transition State Theory It is now believed that all chemical processes proceed through the formation of an intermediate activated complex or transition state. The activated…

Collision theory used to forecast the rates of chemical reactions, mainly for gases. This theory is based on the hypothesis that for a reaction to…

Collision Theory of Reaction Rates In trying to understand the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction it should be recognized that a chemical…
