Choose all of the following that are true. Raising the temperature of a reaction will have no effect on the reaction rate. The units of the rate constant are independent of the overall reaction order. For a zero order reactant, tripling the concentration will have no effect on the rate. The plot of ln[A] vs time results in a straight line when a reaction is second order. Rates of reaction can be positive or negative. Activation energy is the maximum energy needed to initiate a chemical reaction.

Part 1 Element D reacts with F2 to form gaseous DF4. A series of experimental trials to determine the rate law expression for the reaction. 1. A student claims that the reaction is second order with respect to F2 (g). Do you agree or disagree? Justify your answer. 2. If Element D is in group 16, then the molecular geometry of DF4 (g) is see-saw. Do you agree or disagree with this claim? Justify your answer in terms of VSEPR theory.

In a chemical reaction mechanism the rate of the overall chemical reaction is determined by the rate determining elementary step. This elementary step is the one that occurs mostly slowly out of all the elementary steps in the process. Once this step is identified one uses the coefficients of the reactants as the order of these reactants in the rate law.a. For the proposed mechanism below write out the chemical equation for step 1 using the given equations for steps 2 and 3 and the overall equation. The relative rates of each step are also provided.Step 1: ? (slow)Step 2: C4H9+ + H2O → C4H9OH2+ (fast)Step 3: C4H9OH2+ + H2O → C4H9OH + H3O+ (fast)Overall: C4H9Br + 2H2O → C4H9OH + H3O+ + Br−b.
