CHEM 1B  Dr. R. Rinehart
Quiz #1 Study Guide

The quiz will consist of one legal-size page. There will be a time limit of 30 minutes. The types of question formats may include: fill-ins, matching, multiple choice, drawing and/or interpreting diagrams and data tables, writing short descriptions or explanations, and calculations. Material from this chapter will also appear on Exam 1.

In order to answer these questions, you should be able to:

►  draw and/or interpret a reaction energy profile
►  define, explain, recognize, and/or apply the key terms on p. 656 of Moore, Stanitski, Jurs, Chemistry: The Molecular Science,  2/e [or the corresponding list in another text]
►  satisfy the objectives listed on p. 656 [or the corresponding list in another text], and additional ones, particularly:
        ●  state factors affecting reaction rates and give specific examples
        ●  interpret kinetic data to arrive at a rate law
        ●  calculate the value of a rate constant and give the appropriate units
        ●  show how to utilize the integrated rate equations [which will be given as needed] to determine the order of a reaction
        ●  state the Arrhenius equation and show how it can be used to determine E_a
