Write true if the statement is true, otherwise change the underlined word to make the statement true. 1. Metal A has a higher specific heat than metal B. If the two metals are independently applied with equal heat, it is expected that metal A will have a higher change in temperature. 2. The units for the rate constant of an over-all 1st order reaction is s', when the reaction time is measured in seconds. 3. If K is much greater than 1 (that is, K>>1), the equilibrium will favor the formation of reactants. 4. In the iron-thiocyanate system, increasing the pH would produce a dark orange solution. 5. For a weak acid HA, the equilibrium concentration of H3O* is equal to [HA]i. 6.
