8 2. Rates of Metamorphic Reactions Fundamental Question How much of the reaction products C and D, are created as a function of time at a given PT, by the reaction? 123 A + B C123 + D reactants products
9 Defining the reaction rate Reaction rate can be expressed as molar conversion rate: Rate = moles per meter cubed per second (mol m -3 s -1 ) Or relative to the oxygen equivalent (as in Walther & Wood, 1984 special interest reading). Assumptions At fixed PT the rate is constant At equilibrium, the reaction rate is zero How fast a reaction occurs is related to the degree of overstepping of equilibrium conditions
10 Simplest rate law: rate is a linear function of the free energy driving force reaction rate dm dt = r c ( -3 1 mol m s ) G RT r : r c = rate coefficient As suggested by Prigogine & Defay (1954)
11 A closer look at the rate coefficient r c : Arrhenius Law Reaction rate varies as a function of the activation energy E a, temperature, T, and surface area, A s, of the reactants according to the rate multiplier: r c = A e s E a / RT
12 Reaction rate via Arrhenius law dm dt = A e s E / a RT G RT r Rate is an exponential function of temperature r(t) The other key factor is surface area Rate dependence leads to a switch -like behaviour
13 Arrhenius plot of forward reaction rate log r c Experimental monitoring of weight changes of single crystals, lead to the fit: r c (O equiv. wt.% cm 3 s -1 ) = / T 6.85 Assumptions Rate is limited by surface area of single crystals in experiment Fluid composition is not a significant factor (in spite of known ph dependence)
14 Remember the equilibrium constant: As explained in Session 3, the Gibbs free energy of a reaction is the sum over the products of reactants and reaction products in moles, ν i, and their Gibbs free energy at PT of interest relative to their Gibbs free energy of formation from the elements reactants & products G r = ν G i= 0 i o f, i And from G r we arrived at the equilibrium constant, K: log K = G RT r
15 How can K be related to the backward reaction rate? 123 A + B C D reactants forward rate, k [ C][ D] [ A][ B] 2 products backward rate, k K = k k f b = K at equilibrium f r k and [ A][ B] = k [ C][ D] da = k dt since k f b = k f K f r [ A][ B] + k 2 at equilibrium f [ C][ D] K 2

57 Practical 1 1. Explain the appearance and disappearance of the minerals in the paragenetic sequence diagram on the right with the prograde reactions from the lecture notes 2. Try to stochiometrically balance as many of the prograde reactions listed for the boundary between very-low and low grade given the data in todays notes. 3. Name components for a petrogenetic grid suitable for these rocks.
58 Practical 2 With the aid of the combined binoculars and microscopes, investigate the supplied handspecimens of very-low to low grade metamorphic rocks. In your characterisation of the sample, proceed as follows: Describe the fabric Identify main and accessory minerals and their relative proportions (vol.%) Classify the identified minerals in terms of pre- syn- and post-kinematic mineral growth Define parageneses and paragenetic sequences as applicable Name the rock Identify (using the handouts) what chemical category the rock belongs to (i.e. what its protolith was). Use this information in conjunction with your observations of the mineral assemblages to select geothermometers and-or barometers that could be applied to the rock. 7. Interpret the conditions of rock formation or transformation of a protolith on the basis of your observations and in terms of the phase diagrams we studied in class. and interpret the geological history of the sample from protolith to exhumation drawing a tentative PTt-path.
