Dynamic Light Scattering

 
The approach to equilibrium.  Use this interactive graphical simulation to gain insight into the relationship between rate constants, equilibrium constants and the overall time to reach equilibrium.  Try entering different values in the boxes above the graph.  Please note that there is an error in the equations: the top is the equation for the [B] and the bottom is the equation for the [A].  

Collision Theory and the steric factor  Reactive collision trajectories for the Br + HI reaction: Get insight into the way orientation affects the probability of reaction.  This simulation is not a cartoon but an accurate calculation and thus closely approaches reality.  Try different trajectories and orientations.  See what happens.
