Question

For a C-H bond with a stretching frequency 3000 cm-1, what is the expected isotope (deuterium) effect kH/kDk_H/k_D at 298 K ​for a full bond homolysis?

Given h = 6.63×1034Js,c=3×10106.63×10^{-34}Js,c=3×10^{10} cm/s, kB=1.38×1023J/Kk_B=1.38×10^{-23}J/K

A.

e

B.

1

C.

e4

D.

e2

Correct option is D

The Kinetic Isotope effect is a phenomenon observed in chemistry and chemical kinetics where the rate of a chemical reaction is altered when one or more of the atoms in the reacting molecules are replaced with isotopes of the same element. This effect is particularly pronounced when hydrogen atoms (protons) are replaced with deuterium atoms or tritium atoms.
