Which of the following correctly describes intermediates and/or transition states? Transition states can sometimes be isolated while intermediates cannot. Transition states have partially formed bonds whereas intermediates have fully formed bonds. Both transition states and intermediates occur at maxima on reaction coordinate diagrams. An intermediate is always produced after the rate-determining step of a reaction mechanism. Transition states occur at minima on reaction coordinate diagrams.

Your laboratory is asked to analyze a water sample for a particular pesticide. You know from previous study that this pesticide degrades via a first order, irreversible reaction. The first order rate constant (k) for the reaction at 4 °C is 0.02 day¹. The activation energy for the reaction is known to be 10 kcal/mol. The standard preservation method for water samples containing this pesticide is to store the sample at 4 °C for no more than 24 hours prior to analysis. Calculate the fraction of the pesticide that remains in the sample after 24 hours of storage at 4 °C. b. A newly hired staff member collects a sample of the water but forgets to store it at 4 °C. Instead, they leave the sample in the trunk of their car (average temperature 35 °C) over the weekend. 60 hours later the sample is analyzed and found to contain 0.01 mg/L of the pesticide. What was the pesticide concentration in the water at the time the sample was taken?
