THE CHANGE OF CONCENTRATION WITH TIME We learn that rate equations can be written to express how concentrations change with time and look at several examples of rate equations zero-order, first-order, and second-order reactions. 

The equation of A terms represents the unperturbed or model system, and it is the same as Equation 8.69. Again, its solutions have to be known to apply perturbation theory. Inspection of the A equation shows that it involves zero-order elements in addition to the first-order elements. The imknowns in this equation are the first-order correction to the wavefunction, Vn, and the first-order correction to the energy, In the A equation, zero-order and first-order elements enter in addition to the second-order corrections. 

In many cases the variation is not very strong for reasonable displacements from equilibrium, and it is sufficient to use only the zero-order temi in die expansion. If diis is inserted hito equation (B 1.1.6) we get... 

If we can get by with using only the zero-order tenn of (B 1.1.7 ). we can take out of the integral and use the fact that ( ) q is nonnalized. The last equation then simplifies fiirther to... 

If we can use only the zero-order tenn in equation (B 1.1.7) we can remove the transition moment from the integral and recover an equation hrvolving a Franck-Condon factor ... 

We now discuss the lifetime of an excited electronic state of a molecule. To simplify the discussion we will consider a molecule in a high-pressure gas or in solution where vibrational relaxation occurs rapidly, we will assume that the molecule is in the lowest vibrational level of the upper electronic state, level uO, and we will fiirther assume that we need only consider the zero-order tenn of equation (BE 1.7). A number of radiative transitions are possible, ending on the various vibrational levels a of the lower state, usually the ground state. The total rate constant for radiative decay, which we will call, is the sum of the rate constants,... 

The synnnetry selection rules discussed above tell us whether a particular vibronic transition is allowed or forbidden, but they give no mfonnation about the intensity of allowed bands. That is detennined by equation (Bl.1.9) for absorption or (Bl.1.13) for emission. That usually means by the Franck-Condon principle if only the zero-order tenn in equation (B 1.1.7) is needed. So we take note of some general principles for Franck-Condon factors (FCFs). 

If the solution of the zero-order Schiodinger equation [i.e., all teiins in (17) except V(r,Ro) are neglected] yields an/-fold degenerate electronic term, the degeneracy may be removed by the vibronic coupling tenns. If F) and T ) are the two degenerate wave functions, then the vibronic coupling constant... 

A similar approximation should be applied to the components of the equation of motion and the significant terms (with respect to ) consistent with the expanded constitutive equation identified. This analy.sis shows that only FI and A appear in the zero-order terms and hence should be evaluated up to the second order. Furthermore, all of the remaining terms in Equation (5.29), except for S, appear only in second-order terms of the approximate equations of motion and only their leading zero-order terms need to be evaluated to preserve the consistency of the governing equations. The term E, which only appears in the higlier-order terms of the expanded equations of motion, can be evaluated approximately using only the viscous terms. Therefore the final set of the extra stress components used in conjunction with the components of the equation of motion are... 

Relativistic density functional theory can be used for all electron calculations. Relativistic DFT can be formulated using the Pauli formula or the zero-order regular approximation (ZORA). ZORA calculations include only the zero-order term in a power series expansion of the Dirac equation. ZORA is generally regarded as the superior method. The Pauli method is known to be unreliable for very heavy elements, such as actinides. 

Eor a pseudo-zero-order reaction a plot of [A]( versus time should be linear with a slope of -k, and a y-intercept of [A]o (equation 13.8). A plot of the kinetic data is shown in figure 13.7. Linear regression gives an equation of... 

This equation describes the steady-state, or zero-order, release of the dmg. When the dmg completely dissolves, its concentration within the system begins to dilute, and the release rate foUows a parabohc decline with time (102). Acutrim (ALZA Corp.), dehvering phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride [154-41 -6] for appetite suppression, is an example of an elementary osmotic pump. 

This means that the eonversion is proportional to time. Eigure 3-4 shows plots of the zero order rate equations. Examples of zero order reaetions are the intensity of radiation within the vat for photoehemieal reaetions or the surfaee available in eertain solid eatalyzed gas reaetions. 

Saturation kinetics are also called zero-order kinetics or Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The Michaelis-Menten equation is mainly used to characterize the interactions of enzymes and substrates, but it is also widely applied to characterize the elimination of chemical compounds from the body. The substrate concentration that produces half-maximal velocity of an enzymatic reaction, termed value or Michaelis constant, can be determined experimentally by graphing r/, as a function of substrate concentration, [S]. 

Matrix and tensor notation is useful when dealing with systems of equations. Matrix theory is a straightforward set of operations for linear algebra and is covered in Section A.I. Tensor notation, treated in Section A.2, is a classification scheme in which the complexity ranges upward from scalars (zero-order tensors) and vectors (first-order tensors) through second-order tensors and beyond. 

Improbable as a zero-order reaction may seem on the basis of what has been said thus far, let us consider the possibility of this rate equation ... 

Integration between the limits of c = c° when r = 0 and c = c when t = t gives the integrated zero-order rate equation. 

We can reach two useful conclusions from the forms of these equations First, the plots of these integrated equations can be made with data on concentration ratios rather than absolute concentrations second, a first-order (or pseudo-first-order) rate constant can be evaluated without knowing any absolute concentration, whereas zero-order and second-order rate constants require for their evaluation knowledge of an absolute concentration at some point in the data treatment process. This second conclusion is obviously related to the units of the rate constants of the several orders. 

Linear differential equations with constant coefficients can be solved by a mathematical technique called the Laplace transformation . Systems of zero-order or first-order reactions give rise to differential rate equations of this type, and the Laplaee transformation often provides a simple solution. 

The rate equation is first-order in acetone, first-order in hydroxide, but it is independent of (i.e., zero order in) the halogen X2. Moreover, the rate is the same whether X2 is chlorine, bromine, or iodine. These results can only mean that the transition state of the rds contains the elements of acetone and hydroxide, but not of the halogen, which must enter the product in a fast reaction following the rds. Scheme VI satisfies these kinetic requirements. 

These are zero-, first-, second-, th-order perturbation equations. The zero-order equation is just the Schodinger equation for the unperturbed problem. The first-order equation contains two unknowns, the first-order correction to the energy, Wi, and the first-order correction to the wave function, 4< i. The th-order energy correction can be calculated by multiplying from the left by 4>o and Integrating, and using the turnover rule ( o Ho, ) = (, Ho o)... 

It was shown, in Eqs. (1-73), (1-74), (1-75), that a = 1, afy r> => 0, a = 0. As the zeroth approximation we shall assume that A mid /a are zero (their effects are negligibly small) if Eqs. (1-86) and (1-87) are multiplied by /a and A, respectively, we obtain the condition that og0 and -oSi are zero higher order equations would show that all the coefficients are zero. Thus, the coefficients are proportional to some power of /a (or A). The zero-order approximation to the distribution function is just the local maxwellian distribution... 

Schmid s observation of the dependence of the reaction rate on the square of the concentration of nitrous acid was interpreted by Hammett (1940, p. 294) as due to the rate-limiting formation of dinitrogen trioxide, N203. The consequent attack of the amine by N203 was postulated to be faster therefore the concentration of the amine has no influence on the overall rate (zero order with respect to amine). Similarly, Hammett regards the second factor of Schmid s equation for diazotization in the presence of hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid as the result of the formation of nitrosyl halide. 

In Mampel s treatment [447] of nucleation and growth reactions, eqn. (7, n = 3) was found to be applicable to intermediate ranges of a, sometimes preceded by power law obedience and followed by a period of first-order behaviour. Transitions from obedience of one kinetic relation to another have been reported in the literature [409,458,459]. Equation (7, n = 3) is close to zero order in the early stages but becomes more strongly deceleratory when a > 0.5.

The process of calculation becomes more complicated on adding further terms. Coats and Redfem [555] effectively put (U-2)/U equal to a constant value and the relationship is equivalent to that already given for In g i/T2 from the single term expansion. They assumed that f(q) = (1 — q)" and determined n by testing values which have significance in solid state decomposition reactions (i.e. n = 0, 0.5, 0.67 and 1.00). Sharp [75,556] has shown that the approach may be applied to other functions of g(q). If it is assumed that the zero-order equation applied at low a, as q -> 0, then g(q) == a. 

Hofer et al. [671] observed that the decompositions of Ni3C and Co2C (the iron compounds melt) obeyed the zero-order equation for 0.3 < a < 0.9 (596-628 K and E = 255 kJ mole-1) and 0.2 < a < 0.75 (573-623 K and E = 227 kJ mole-1), respectively. The magnitudes of the rate coefficients for the two reactions were closely similar but the nickel compound exhibited a long induction period and an acceleratory process which was not characteristic of the reaction of the cobalt compound. Decomposition mechanisms were not discussed.
