Question
The following reaction is first order with respect to (CH3)3CBr and zero order with
respect to CH3OH. The rate constant for the reaction is 2.28 x 10² s¹ at 25°C.
(CH3)3CBr + CH3OH
(CH3)3COCH3 + HBr
a. Write the rate law expression for this reaction.
b. If initial concentration of (CH3)3CBr is 0.225 M, how long does it take for 75.0% of the
(CH3)3CBr to react?
c. What would the concentration of (CH3)3CBr be after 20.0 minutes?
d. What is the half-life for this reaction?
