Determining Reactant Orders from Actual Data
1. Given the following data, determine the
         (a) order of reaction of reactant A,
         (b) order of reaction of reactant B, and
         (c) total reaction order for the equation.

Experiment       [NO] (M)               [Cl2] (M)                      Rate (M/s)

        1                0.0300                   0.0100                         3.4 × 10–4
        2                0.0150                   0.0100                         8.5 × 10–5
        3                0.0150                   0.0400                         3.4 × 10–4

2. The initial rate data for the reaction 2N2O5(g) → 4NO2(g) + O2(g) is shown in the following table.
                      Experiment       [N2O5](M)               Rate (M/s)
                               1                1.28 × 102                 22.5
                               2                2.56 x 102                 45.0

a. Determine the order of reaction of the given reactant.
b. Determine the value of the rate constant for this reaction.
