What is the general format for the formula for the rate of a reaction?
Rate= k(A)^n (B)^m Where n and m are the number of mols of each reactant and A and B are each reactant. The brackets should also be square to show concentrations.

The pH of a strong acid can be worked out using what formula?
-log(H^+)
2 of 14
You can rearrange the rate equation to find k. What are the units for k? (don't worry too much about the powers on it for now)
mol^-1 dm^3 s^-1

Using the formula -Ea/ R = gradient, what is Ea?
-gradient x R.
4 of 14
What is R?
8.134

Standard entropy of the system is what…?
Sum of the standard entropy of the products - the sum of the standard entropy of the reactants
6 of 14
pH of a strong base is…?
-log( Kw/(conc of OH)) where Kw is the water constant.
7 of 14
What is Kw?
1x10^-14
8 of 14
Partial pressure can be found with what formula?
(moles/ total moles) x total pressure (P)
9 of 14
moles/(volume/1000) is the formula to find what?
Concentration (in dm^3)
10 of 14
As well as strong acids and bases there are weaker ones. What formula can you use to find the pH of a weak acid?
-log((HAxKa)^(1/2)) where ^1/2 is the same as square rooting and HA is concentration and Ka will be given.
11 of 14
Similarly what formula can be used to work out the pH of a weak base?
14-pOH (you can work out pOH the same way as you would pH)
12 of 14
-(deltaH/ T) is the formula for what?
Standard entropy of the surroundings.
13 of 14
Do you add or subtract the standard entropy of the surroundings and system to find delta S total?
