Transcribed Image Text:**Educational Explanation: Second-Order Rate Constants for Acid-Catalyzed Hydration**
In this section, we explore the second-order rate constants for the acid-catalyzed hydration of various alkenes at 25°C. The rate constants are measured in units of M⁻¹s⁻¹ (Molarity inverse seconds). Below is a list of alkenes along with their molecular structures and corresponding rate constants:
1. **Propene (\( \text{H}_3\text{C} \!-\! \text{CH} \! = \! \text{CH}_2 \))**
- Rate Constant: \( 4.95 \times 10^{-8} \)
2. **1-Butene (\( \text{H}_3\text{C} \!-\! \text{CH}_2 \!-\! \text{CH} \! = \! \text{CH}_2 \))**
- Rate Constant: \( 8.32 \times 10^{-8} \)
3. **Cis-2-Butene (\( \text{H}_3\text{C} \!-\! \text{CH} = \text{C} \!-\! \text{CH}_3 \))**
- Rate Constant: \( 3.51 \times 10^{-8} \)
4. **Trans-2-Butene (\( \text{H}_3\text{C} = \text{C} \!-\! \text{CH}_3 \!-\! \text{CH}_3 \))**
- Rate Constant: \( 2.15 \times 10^{-8} \)
5. **2-Methylpropene (\( \text{H}_3\text{C} \!-\! \text{C} = \text{C} \!-\! \text{CH}_3 \))**
- Rate Constant: \( 3.42 \times 10^{-8} \)
**Part A: Calculation of Relative Rates for Propene**
The task involves calculating the relative rates of hydration for propene. Use the hint provided: divide the rate constant by the smallest rate constant in the series, \( 3.51 \times 10^{-8} \).
**Part B: Calculation of Relative Rates for (
