Electron transfers and these processes occur faster than expected in a harpoon reaction. These processes occur between A and A-star in the Lindemann mechanism. (15[2])The rate of these processes can be calculated as the square root of (15[1])[read slowly] “eight times k B T, divided by the product of pi and the reduced mass” times sigma. The frequency of (15[2])these processes times a (*) steric (10[1])factor (10[1])gives the (10[7])Arrhenius (10[7])pre-exponential (10[1])factor. Velocity (10[1])does (10[2])not correlate to (10[3])the time between (10[3])these processes, during which a molecule will travel one mean (10[3])free path. The (10[1])ideal gas law (10[1])can be derived by defining pressure as the force (10[1])of (10[1])these events, which (10[1])are “effective” when they occur at proper orientations. For 10 points, name these events that (10[1])kinetic molecular theory assumes are elastic. ■END■
