The reaction kinetics among isoquinoline, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, and indole (as NH-acid) were investigated using ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometry. The reaction rate equation was obtained, the dependence of the reaction rate on different reactants was determined, and the overall rate constant ( kov) was calculated. By studying the effects of solvent, temperature, and concentration on the reaction rate, some useful information was obtained. A logical mechanism consistent with the experimental observations was proposed. Also, comprehensive theoretical studies were performed to evaluate the potential energy surfaces of all structures that participated in the reaction mechanism. Finally, the proposed mechanism was confirmed by the obtained results and the probable and logical reaction paths and also a correct product configuration were suggested based on the theoretical results.

This study was aimed to develop teaching materials about chemical reaction rate which covered materials adapted to A-Level High School students of grade XI in Pioneer International Standard High School (RSMA-BI). The developmental research was adopting the instructional development model 4D which include four stages of development, namely define, design, develop, and disseminate. Instructional materials were written in English consist of seven topics titled: Reaction Rate Concept, The Exchange's Expressions, Rate Law and Reaction Order, Experimental Determination of a Rate Law, Reaction Mechanism, Theories of Reaction Rate, Factors Affecting Reaction Rate. Results of content validation from content experts obtained the average score of 3. 56 of 14 range of scores which means valid / good / decent. Test limited to high school students of RSBI obtained an average score of 3.35 (valid / good / decent). The results of the use of teaching materials obtained a score of 77.8 which is above the minimal passing grade (75). Therefore it can be concluded that the materials were feasible to be used in the classroom.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan bahan ajar laju reaksi dengan cakupan materi yang disesuaikan dengan A-Level untuk siswa kelas XI Rintisan Sekolah Menengah Atas Bertaraf Internasional (RSMA-BI.

AbstractIsocitric acid oxidative decarboxylation was realized in the absence and in the presence of homoionic Na+-, Mn2+-, and Cu2+-montmorillonite. The catalytic activity of the clay depends upon the nature of the interlayer exchangeable cation. Isocitric acid is transformed into α-ketoglutaric acid under the action of the clay mineral saturated with Na+ cations which do not form a complex with the isocitrate anion. Nevertheless, the reaction rate is very much lower than in the presence of the enzymatic system (isocitrate dehydrogenase enzyme and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate coenzyme). The reaction mechanism in the presence of clay is given showing the different steps of the transformation.

Numerical simulation based on a moment method is conducted to investigate the feasibility of an assumed probability density function (PDF) approach in the configuration of a turbulent jet nonpremixed flame. In this study, a multivariate β-PDF is employed to account for turbulence-chemistry interaction. The multivariate β-PDF approach has an advantage that only one additional transport equation of sum of composition variances is solved to determine the shape of species PDF to transport equations of mean compositions. The numerical simulation is carried out for H3 flame. Reaction mechanism is a single-step irreversible reaction including H2, O2 and H2O species. The results are compared with those from measurements and a combined PDF/moment method that detailed reaction mechanism is applied. Velocity distributions obtained by the multivariate β-PDF approach show good agreement with measurements and combined PDF/moment results, which indicates that the present approach can predict the flow pattern of nonpremixed flames. The present approach also provides good predictions in terms of mean temperature and mass fraction. PDFs of mass fraction obtained by the present approach are similar to those by the combined PDF/moment method. On the other hand, the variance of temperature is underpredicted, which is attributed to an approximation of temperature variance. In order to achieve a good prediction of the reaction rate, a PDF approximation of enthalpy is proposed for the evaluation of mean reaction rate.

The kinetics of permanganate oxidation of selenium dioxide in perchloric acid solutions at a constant ionic strength of 2.0 mol dm-3 has been investigated spectrophotometrically. A first-order reaction in [MnO4-] and fractional order with respect to selenium(IV) were observed. The reaction rate was found to be pH-independent at lower acid concentrations ([H+] < 0.5 mol dm-3) and was acid-catalyzed beyond this range. Addition of Mn2+ and F- ions leads to the prediction that MnO4- is the sole reactive species in the oxidation process. A tentative reaction mechanism consistent with the reaction kinetics has been proposed.

The Michaelis constant of membrane-bound adenylate cyclase increased from 1.1 to 1.8 mM between 7 and 38 degrees C (delta H = 13 kJ/mol). Over this temperature range, the maximum velocity increased 10-fold, and the Arrhenius plot was nearly linear, with an average delta H* of 51 kJ/mol. The temperature-dependence of the reaction rate at 2 mM-ATP was examined in more detail: for Lubrol-dispersed enzyme, Arrhenius plots were nearly linear with average delta H* values of 45 and 68 kJ/mol, respectively, for untreated and gel-filtered enzymes; for membrane-bound enzyme, delta H changed from 40 kJ/mol above about 21 degrees C to 62 kJ/mol below 21 degrees C, but this behaviour does not necessarily indicate an abrupt, lipid-induced, transition in the reaction mechanism.

A supported nickel catalyst, commonly applied in industrial hydrogenation of fatts and oils, was used to study the effect of replacement of the light water solvent, with heavy water, on the addition of hydrogen on a double bond of maleic acid. The effect was investigated of the composition and temperature of the solution, on the reaction rate, as well as, the relation between the reaction rate and the amount of the acid absorbed on the catalyst. Reaction mechanism with respect to the hydrogenated organic compound is proposed.
