Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.22PAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The rate measured in an initial rate experiment must be classified as either average or instantaneous rate
Concept Introduction:
Chemical reactions proceed at a certain rate which is represented in terms of the change in concentration over a certain period of time.- The rate can be expressed either in terms of a decrease in concentration of the reactants or an increase in the concentration of products.
- Average
rate of a reaction can be defined as the difference in the concentrations measured at two different times whereas, instantaneous rate can be defined as the rate of a reaction at a particular instant in time.

- Iodomethane (CH3I) is a commonly used reagent in organic chemistry. When used properly, this reagent allows chemists to introduce methyl groups in many different useful applications. The chemical does pose a risk as a carcinogen, possibly owing to iodomethanes ability to react with portions of the DNA strand (if they were to come in contact). Consider the following hypothetical initial rates data: [DNA]0 ( mol/L) [CH3I]0 ( mol/L) Initial Rate (mol/Ls) 0.100 0.100 3.20 104 0.100 0.200 6.40 104 0.200 0.200 1.28 103 Which of the following could be a possible mechanism to explain the initial rate data?

From calculus, initial rate = d[A]dt . Therefore. the differential rate law for a reaction is Rate = d[A]dt=k[A]n. Assuming you have some calculus in your background, derive the zero-, first-, and second-order integrated rate laws using the differential rate law.arrow_forwardExpress the rate of the reaction 2N2O(g)2N2(g)+O2(g) in terms of (b) [ N2O ] (a) [ O2 ]arrow_forward

In the reaction of oxygen with candle w ax in Figure 11.2, the rate of consumption of oxygen decreased with time after the flask was covered, and eventually' the flame went out. From the perspective of the kinetic-molecular theory, describe what is happening in the flask. FIGURE 11.2 When a candle burns in a closed container, the flame will diminish and eventually go out. As the amount of oxygen present decreases, the rate of combustion will also decrease. Eventually, the rate of combustion is no longer sufficient to sustain the flame even though there is still some oxygen present in the vessel.arrow_forwardGiven the reaction 2A+BC+3D, can you write the rate law for this reaction?
