  2. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    Elimination reaction of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene with sulfuric acid and heat [1] An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism. [2] The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction ...

  3. Evelyn effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_effect

    In general, if more than one alkene can be formed during dehalogenation by an elimination reaction, the more stable alkene is the major product. There are two types of elimination reactions, E1 and E2. An E2 reaction is a One step mechanism in which carbon-hydrogen and carbon-halogen bonds break to form a double bond. C=C Pi bond.

  4. Reactivity series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

    The order of reactivity, as shown by the vigour of the reaction with water or the speed at which the metal surface tarnishes in air, appears to be Cs > K > Na > Li > alkaline earth metals, i.e., alkali metals > alkaline earth metals, the same as the reverse order of the (gas-phase) ionization energies.

  5. Reaction mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_mechanism

    An example of a simple chain reaction is the thermal decomposition of acetaldehyde (CH 3 CHO) to methane (CH 4) and carbon monoxide (CO). The experimental reaction order is 3/2, [4] which can be explained by a Rice-Herzfeld mechanism. [5] This reaction mechanism for acetaldehyde has 4 steps with rate equations for each step :

  6. Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belousov–Zhabotinsky...

    A stirred BZ reaction mixture showing changes in color over time. The discovery of the phenomenon is credited to Boris Belousov.In 1951, while trying to find the non-organic analog to the Krebs cycle, he noted that in a mix of potassium bromate, cerium(IV) sulfate, malonic acid, and citric acid in dilute sulfuric acid, the ratio of concentration of the cerium(IV) and cerium(III) ions ...

  7. Rate equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_equation

    The order of reaction is a number which quantifies the degree to which the rate of a chemical reaction depends on concentrations of the reactants. [2] In other words, the order of reaction is the exponent to which the concentration of a particular reactant is raised. [ 2 ]

  8. Entropy of activation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_of_activation

    The factor is needed because of the pressure dependence of the reaction rate. R′ = 8.3145 × 10 −2 (bar·L)/(mol·K). [1] The value of ΔS ‡ provides clues about the molecularity of the rate determining step in a reaction, i.e. the number of molecules that enter this step. [2]

  9. Reactivity (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, reactivity is the impulse for which a chemical substance undergoes a chemical reaction, either by itself or with other materials, with an overall release of energy. Reactivity refers to: the chemical reactions of a single substance, the chemical reactions of two or more substances that interact with each other,
