Energy in Chemical Reaction
Activation Energy
When molecules collide, bond between
atoms are broken and new bonds are
formed.
The energy needed to break apart those
bonds is called the activation energy.
If energy of a collision is less than the
activation energy, the molecules bounce
apart without reacting.

Exothermic and Endothermic Reaction
Exothermic Reaction
Energy of Product is lower than Energy of Reactant
Endothermic Reaction
Energy of Product is higher than Energy of Reactant
Rate of Reaction
The rate or speed of reaction is measured by
the amount of reactant used up, or the
amount of product formed, in a certain period
of time.
Rate of reaction can be affected by :
1. Change in the temperature
At higher temperature kinetic energy of
reactants increases so they move faster and
collide often
2. The amount of reactants in the container
There are more collisions in reactants if amount
is more
3. The addition of catalyst
Catalyst lowers the activation energy

if patient having difficulty breathing may be
given a breathing mixture with a higher oxygen
content than the atmosphere.
The Rate of Reaction Increases When Reactants are
Added
Patient can breathe more easily
Reversible Reactions
When a reaction occurs both forward and reverse
direction it is called reversible reaction
(In many reactions the products interact and revert
back into the reactants)
2SO2(g) + O2 ( g) 2 SO3(g)
COCl2 CO (g) + Cl2
N2(g) + O2(g) 2NO(g)

Becomes Equal to Rate of Backward Reaction

Chemical Equilibrium
initially
The same reaction mixture is obtained whether the reaction
starts with the reactants or with just the products
Sample-I Sample-II
At equilibrium both samples have same proportions of reactants
and products.
