Topic 5.3 Concentration Changes Over Time

*Identify the rate law expression of a chemical reaction using data that show how the concentrations of reaction species change over time.


Topic 5.4 Elementary reactions

*Represent an elementary reaction as a rate law expression using stoichiometry.


Topic 5.5 Collision Model

*Explain the relationship between the rate of an elementary reaction and the frequency, energy, and orientation of molecular collisions.


Topic 5.6 Reaction Energy Profile

*Represent the activation energy and overall energy change in an elementary reaction using a reaction energy profile.


Topic 5.7 Introduction to Reaction Mechanisms
