We investigate the kinetics of diffusion-influenced catalytic reactions occurring in small reaction volume. From a simple exact model study, we find that the reaction rate coefficient decreases with the size of reaction volume. The explicit expression for the average reaction rate constant is presented, which can be regarded as a generalization of well-known Collins-Kimball rate constant into the reactions occurring in a small reaction volume. It turns out that the traditional diffusion influenced reaction dynamics is followed by a single exponential relaxation phase with a rate constant dependent on the reaction volume for the catalytic reactions occurring in small reaction volumes.

A Kinetics pathway of oxidation of Cefpodoxime Proxetil by permanganate in alkaline medium at a constant ionic strength has been studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction showed first order kinetics in permanganate ion concentration and an order less than unity in cefpodoxime acid and alkali concentrations. Increasing ionic strength of the medium increase the rate. The oxidation reaction proceeds via an alkali-permanganate species which forms a complex with cefpodoxime acid. The latter decomposes slowly, followed by a fast reaction between a free radical of cefpodoxime acid and another molecule of permanganate to give the products. Investigations of the reaction at different temperatures allowed the determination of activation parameters with respect to the slow step of proposed mechanism and fallows first order kinetics. The proposed mechanism and the derived rate laws are consistent with the observed kinetics.

A kinetics study on the dissolution reaction of zinc-ferrite has been made with aqueous sulfuric acid in various temperature and concentration. Fraction reacted(R) and apparent rate constant(K) increased with increasing temperature and concentration of sulfuric acid solution. The rate of dissolution is shown by $1-(1-K)^{1/3}=Kt$ for the initial stage of the reaction in aqueous sulfuric acid, where K is apparent rate constant, R is fraction reacted and t is reaction time, respectively. Activation energy associated with reaction was determined to be 16.3 kcal/mole. The dissolution of zinc-ferrite in sulfuric acid solution is dissolved by sto-ichiometric composition, but Fe and Zn did not dissolved, respectively.

Pseudo first-order rate constants for reactions of seven m- or p- phenyl-ring substituted 3,5-diphenyl 1,2,4-dithiazolium triodides with hydrazine in excess, in pyridine, were determined by a UV spectrophotometry. For these reactions, calculated some activation parameters, identified the reaction products, and investigated the effect of substituent on the reaction rate. These reactions were accelerated by electron-withdrawing substituents and obeyed the Hammett rule. From the observed kinetics, a reaction mechanism was proposed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between concepts on chemical reaction rates and concepts on chemical equilibrium in high school students. The subjects of the investigation consisted of 120 third grade students attending high school in K city of Kyunggi province. For this study, questionnaire relevant to the subject of chemical reaction rates and chemical equilibrium was developed and the answers were analyzed. As a result of the study, a large percentage of high school students answered questions on reaction rates correctly, but only a small percentage of the students could give explanations. Many high school students answered questions on the rates of forward reactions correctly, but not the questions on the rates of reverse reactions. For the concepts on chemical equilibrium, many high school students gave correct answers when faced with equilibrium questions that only required the understanding of one side of the reaction. But the students could not answer the questions requiring understanding of both forward and reverse reactions as well. Overall, there was a little high correlation between concepts on chemical reaction rates and concepts on chemical equilibrium in high school students. Especially, high school students with little understanding of reverse reaction rates did not understand that chemical equilibrium is a dynamic equilibrium. Also, high school students with little understanding of the collision mechanism regarding chemical reaction rates did not understand the effect of concentration and catalyst factors on chemical equilibrium. And the correlation between concepts on chemical reaction rates and concepts on chemical equilibrium related to concentration and catalyst factors was low. In conclusion, the formation of scientific concepts on chemical reactions rates can decrease misconceptions on chemical equilibrium. Also the teaching-learning method limited to one side of a reaction can cause difficulty in forming the concepts on chemical dynamic equilibrium. Therefore, the development of a teaching-learning method which covers both the forward and reverse reactions can be effective in helping students form the concepts on chemical equilibrium.

The reaction rates of para-substituted benzoyl chlorides ($p-CH_3$, p-H, $p-NO_2$) with pyridine have been measured employing the conductometry method in acetonitrile. The pseudo first-order and second-order rate constants were determined at various pressures and temperatures. The activation parameters (${\Delta}V{\ddagger},\;{\Delta}{\beta}{\ddagger},\;{\Delta}H{\ddagger},\;{\Delta}S{\ddagger},\;{\Delta}G{\ddagger}$) and the Hammett ${\rho}$-values are determined from the values of rate constant. The values of ${\Delta}V{\ddagger},\;{\Delta}{\beta}{\ddagger}\;and\;{\Delta}S{\ddagger}$ are all negative. The Hammett ${\rho}$-values are positive for the substrate (${\rho}_Y$) over the given pressure range. The results of kinetic studies, for the pressure and substituent changes, show that these reactions are proceeded by a typical $SN_2$reaction mechanism and its bond formation is favored with elevating pressure.

Kinetics for the nucleophiles have been studied under high vacuum and high pressures in various temperatures. Pseudo-first order rate constants, second order rate constants, thermodynamic parameters and Hammett ${\rho}$-values are determined. The values of ${\Delta}V^{\neq},\;{\Delta}{\beta}^{\neq}\;and\;{\Delta}S^{\neq}$are all negative. The Hammett r-values are negative for the nucleophile (${\rho}$x) over the pressure range studied. The results of kinetic studies for pressure and nucleophilet show that these reactions proceed in typical $S_N2$ reaction mechanism and change of mechanism.
