Reaction-eneigy diagram

Figure 6 (a) Reaction eneigy diagram for DME formation via a surface methoxy intermediate involving one methanol molecule at each step... 

La photovoltaic cells, the same redox reaction, OX + e = KED, may be used for both the anode and the cathode. Figure 10-33 shows an eneigy diagram of an operating photovoltaic cell this cell consists of a metallic cathode and a photoexcited n-type semiconductor anode. The electromotive force (the open cell voltage), ph > approximately equals the difference between the flat band potential of... 

Figure 2-10 Eneigy diagram illustrating the temperature change in a reaction in which no heat is exchanged with the surroundings, a situation called an adiabatic reactor.

FIGURE 8.18 This eneigy diagram for the same reaction shown in Figure 8.17 emphasizes the reversal. Here the activation energy for displacement of cyanide hy iodide is shown. 

PROBLEM 8.25 Select the animation tided Unimolecular elimination El and observe the energy diagram. Do you suppose this reaction is reversible Use the eneigy diagram to answer this question. Use the nature of the products to answer the same question. 

PROBLEM 8.28 Observe the Hofmann elimination reaction. Draw the eneigy diagram shown for the reaction. Draw a new reaction curve for the same reaction run in a more polar solvent. Draw the curve for a reaction run in a less polar solvent. Which solvent would likely give the faster Hofmann elimination ... 

It is seen from the eneigy diagram that the highest potential barrier is attributed to the transformation of the long-lived complex A2 into the long-lived complex A3. Nevertheless, this barrier also lies below the minimum eneigy of the reactants. In die activated complex A3 4= the N(ij— H(2) and N(2>—O bonds are cleaved to form H2O and N2. It is clear that the reaction should proceed through channel b when the H(2>— O and N(2)—O bonds are cleaved. 

Diagrams that show how the free eneigy changes as a reaction proceeds were introduced in Chapter 4 and are very useful. Figure 8.1 shows such a diagram for the SN2 reac-... 

Fig. 7.4 Schematic eneigy band diagram for an ideal photoelectrochemical cell with a singleabsorber semiconductor photoanode and a metal cathode for light assisted water splitting. The electrochemical potentials for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are represented by —qE°, where represents the reduction potential for the corresponding redox couples...
