The substitution of CO in Ni(CO)4 by another molecule L [where L is an electron-pair donor such
as P(CH3)3] was studied some years ago and led to an understanding of some of the general
principles that govern the chemistry of compounds having metal-CO bonds. A detailed study of the
kinetics of the reaction led to the following mechanism:
Slow Ni(CO) + Ni(CO), + CO
Fast Ni(CO); +L Ni(CO),L
The experimental rate constant for the reaction, when L P(C,Hs)3, is
9.3 x 10 s1 at 20 °C. If the initial concentration of Ni(CO), is
0.018 M, what is the concentration of the product after 6.7 minutes?
Concentration =

Expert Solution
Step 1
  • First order kinetics:- The reactions which has order equal to one, follows first order kinetics. 
  • Example- All the nuclear reactions follow first order kinetics.
  • First order kinetics rate equation is as follows:-

        Kt=lnaoat

       where,

       K=rate constant of the reaction

       t= time

     ao= initial concentration at time zero

     at= concentration left after time 't=6.7min'
