Collision Theory

Experiment I (zinc powder + hydrochloric acid)
Experiment II (zinc granules + hydrochloric acid)
1) Rate of reaction of experiment I is higher than experiment II
2) Exp I using zinc powder has a smaller size of zinc compare to Exp II
3) Smaller size of zinc has larger total surface area in Exp I.
4) Frequency of collision between zinc and hydrogen ion higher in Exp I
5) Frequency of effective collision between zinc and hydrogen ion higher in Exp I.

Proton number and nucleon number

Proton number (atomic number)   =   number of protons in its atom

Nucleon number (mass number)    =   total number of proton and number of neutron in its atom

Rate of reaction

Rate of reaction = change in a selected quantity / time taken

Rate of reaction increases when
  • An increase in the total surface area of a solid reactant (smaller size of the reactant)
  • An increase in the concentration of a reactant
  • An increase in the temperature
  • A catalyst (positive) used.

Diffusion of bromine gas in gas jar

Bromine is made up of tiny and discrete particles.
The bromine particles move quickly in between the air particles,
from high concentration area to low concentration area

Isotope

Atom of the same element with same number of proton and different number of nucleon.
Examples:
Carbon-14 = to determine the age of bones
Cobalt-60 = to use for the treatment of cancer
