For the overall gas-phase reaction of the formation of phosgene (Cl₂CO) from carbon monoxide and chlorine, the following mechanism has been proposed: Cl₂ + M2CI+M k_1 CI+CO+MCICO + M k_2 k3 CICO + Cl₂C₁₂CO+CI Derive the expected rate law assuming [M] is large and constant, and using: (a) The equilibrium assumption for the first two steps. (b) Instead using the steady state assumption for any intermediates. (c) Why does the reaction become zeroth order in [CO] in the steady state case?

Express the rate constant k for the overall chemical reaction in terms of k1, k2, and (if necessary) the rate constants k.1 and k-2 for k = the reverse of the two elementary reactions in the mechanism.
2C4H6(g) → C8H12(g) At high temperatures, the compound C4H6 (1,3-butadiene) reacts according to the equation above. The rate of the reaction was studied at 625 K in a rigid reaction vessel. Two different trials, each shown with a different starting concentration, were carried out. The data were plotted in three different ways, as shown below. (a) For trial 1, calculate the initial pressure, in atm, in the vessel at 625 K. Assume that initially all the gas present in the vessel is C4H6. (Hint-this is a gas law problem from chemistry last year) (b) Use the data plotted in the graphs to determine the order of the reaction with respect to C4H6. (c) The initial rate of the reaction in trial 1 is 0.0010 mol/(L *s). Calculate the rate constant, k, for the reaction at 625 K.

In a study of the rearrangement of cyclopropane to propene at 500 °C (CH₂)3 CH3CH=CH₂ the concentration of (CH₂)3 was followed as a function of time. It was found that a graph of In[(CH₂)3] versus time in seconds gave a straight line with a slope of -9.38×104 s¹ and a y-intercept of -2.02. Based on this plot, the reaction is order in (CH₂)3 and the rate constant for the reaction is
