In a kinetic experiment with multiple reactants, the general form of the rate law is Rate = k[A]*[B]" To study the order of each reactant, you add a large excess of one reactant, A, and plot the concentration of the other, B, over time. From the plot, you determine that the rate law is first order with respect to B. You then repeat the experiment with a different concentration of A, resulting in this data table.

Consider the reaction, A + B + C => D, which is found to be first order in A, first order in B and first order in C. Which step of the proposed mechanism must be slow in order to agree with this rate law? 1. A(g) + B(g) => X(g) 2. X(g) + C(g) => Y(g) 3. Y(g) => D(g) A. 1 B. only 3 C. Either 2 or 3 D. only 2
The overall order of an elementary step directly corresponds to its molecularity. Both steps in this example are second order because they are each bimolecular. Furthermore, the rate law can be determined directly from the number of each type of molecule in an elementary step. For example, the rate law for step 1 is rate=k[NO2]2 The exponent "2" is used because the reaction involves two NO2 molecules. The rate law for step 2 is rate=k[NO3]1[CO]1=k[NO3][CO] because the reaction involves only one molecule of each reactant the exponents are omitted.

Nitrosyl bromide decomposes by the reaction 2 NOBr(g) → 2 NO(g) + Br₂(g). Show that the following data are consistent with a second-order reaction and determine the second-order rate constant for the reaction. Students may do this by plotting the data three different ways. For each plot, time goes on the x-axis. A zero-order reaction is linear when [NOBr] on the y-axis. A first-order reaction is linear when In [NOBr] is on the y-axis. A second-order reaction is linear when 1/[NOBr] is on the y-axis. t [NOBr] 0 0.0653 OM-2.5-2 O M-¹. S-1 What are the units for the rate law?
