A. Consider the following proposed mechanism for the production of chlorine dixoide from chlorine and ozone. Draw a reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction. Label reactants, products, transition states, intermediates, and activation energy on your sketch. Assume the reaction is endothermic. NOTE: CI is chlorine, not Carbon lodide Overall: Cl₂ (g) + 203 (g) → 2 CIO₂ (g) + O₂ (g) Step 1: Cl₂ (g) → 2 Cl (g) fast Step 2: Cl (g) + Os (g) CIO₂ +O fast Step 3: O (g) + O3 (g) → 202 (g) fast Step 4: Cl (g) + O2 (g) → CIO2 (g) slow
Two gases X and Y are found in the atmosphere in only trace amounts because they decompose quickly. When exposed to ultraviolet light the half-life of X is 15. min, while that of Y is 2.50 h. Suppose an atmospheric scientist studying these decompositions fills a transparent 10.0 L flask with X and Y and exposes the flask to UV light. Initially, the partial pressure of X is 5.0 times greater than the partial pressure of Y. As both gases decompose, will the partial pressure of X ever fall below the partial pressure of Y? If you said yes, calculate the time it takes the partial pressure of X to fall below the partial pressure of Y. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. O yes O no min 0 0 14

Cryosurgical procedures involve lowering the patient’s body temperature prior to the surgery. If the activation energy, Ea, for the beating of the heart muscle can be estimated to be about 30 kJ and the normal pulse rate at 37°C is 75 beats/minute, estimate the pulse rate if the body temperature is lowered to 22°C.
