10. The rate of change in colour of iodide (yellow) can be measured as it reacts with colourless hypochlorite, OCI (ag): I (aq) + OCI(aq) I0- (aq) + Cl (aq) a. Different concentrations of reactants are combined at the same temperature and the rate of yellow colour disappearance were measured: Rate of colour Trial Initial [I] (mol/L) Initial [OCI(ag)) change (mol/(L s) 0.12 0.18 7.91 x 102 1 0.18 3.95 x 102 0.060 0.090 0.030 9.88 x 103 3 0.24 7.91 x 102 4 0.090 Using the data provided, calculate the value of the rate constant, including units b. Predict the rate of reaction if both reactants have an equal starting concentration of 0.10 mol/1.
Iodine is sparingly soluble in water but much more so in carbon tetrachloride. The equilibrium constant, also called the partition coefficient, for the distribution of I2 between these two phases I2(aq) =12(CCI4) is 83 at 20°C. (a) A student adds 0.028 L of CCI4 to 0.213 L of an aqueous solution containing 0.037 g I2. The mixture is shaken and the two phases are then allowed to separate. Calculate the fraction of I2 remaining in the aqueous phase. 4.0 (b) The student now repeats the extraction of I2 with another 0.028 L of CCI4. Calculate the fraction of I2 from the original solution that remains in the aqueous phase. 4.0 (c) Compare the result in (b) with a single extraction using 0.056 L of CCI4. Comment on the difference. After a single extraction using 0.056 L of CCI4, the fraction of I2 that remains in the aqueous phase is 40 This result is larger than the result in (b), which means that a single large extraction is not as efficient as two separate smaller extractions.

This question has several parts that must be completed sequentially. Please use the values in the resources listed below instead of the textbook values. Derivation Calculate the equilibrium constant for the following reaction at 1224 K. 12(g) = 2 I(g) The bond length of I₂ is 2.67 Å, and the vibrational wavenumber is 214.5 cm-1. The bond dissociation energy of I₂ is 151.0 kJ.mol-¹. [Hint: To calculate the degeneracy of the iodine atom in its ground electronic state, note that there is an unpaired electron in the 5p orbital. The degeneracy is given by (2J + 1), where J, the total angular momentum, is given by the sum of the orbital angular momentum and spin angular momentum. (Assume a standard pressure of 1.00 bar and a mass of 126.90 amu for I.)] Step 1 of 11 Provide the equation needed to calculate the translational partition function for the iodine atom.

The following are Biophysical Chemistry Questions: When we are determining the equilibrium affinity (K) for a binding reaction or the rate constant (k) for a reaction, why do we make multiple measurements? Why is it useful to put one (or more) reagents in great excess of the other (for equilibrium analysis or kinetic analysis?) Why do you start learning about heat and work in thermodynamics witht the ideal gases instead of chemical reactions?
