Problem E18A.5(b)

For the gaseous reaction $$\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{P}$$, the reactive cross-section obtained from the experimental value of the frequency factor is $$8.7 \times 10^{-22} \mathrm{\ m}^{2}$$ . The collision cross-sections of A and B estimated from the transport properties are $$0.88 \mathrm{\ nm}^{2}$$ and $$0.40 \mathrm{\ nm}^{2}$$ , respectively. Calculate the steric factor, P, for the reaction.

Lecture Presentation Chapter 3 Molecules, Compounds, and Chemical Equations Christian Madu, Ph.D. Collin College How Many Different Substances Exist • Elements combine with each other to form compounds. • The great diversity of substances that we find in nature is a direct result of the ability of elements to form compounds. Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Water • The dramatic difference between the elements hydrogen and oxygen and the compound water is typical of the differences between elements and the compounds that they form. • When two or more elements combine to form a compound, an entirely new substance results. Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Water © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Definite Proportion • A hydrogen–oxygen mixture can have any proportions of hydrogen and oxygen gas. • Water, by contrast, is composed of water molecules that always contain two hydrogen atoms to every one oxygen atom. • Water has a definite proportion of hydrogen to oxygen. Definite Proportion © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Chemical Bonds • Compounds are composed of atoms held together by chemical bonds. • Chemical bonds result from the attractions between the charged particles (the electrons and protons) that compose atoms. • C
