- 11.102 Suppose that you are studying a reaction and need to determine its rate law. Explain what you would need to measure in order to accomplish this in a single experiment, and how you could use graphical methods to get from the experimental data to a complete rate law.arrow_forwardDefine these terms: (a) unimolecular reaction (b) bimolecular reaction (c) elementary reaction (d) overall reactionarrow_forwardWhy awe elementary reactions involving three or more reactants very uncommon?arrow_forward
- Consider a hypothetical reaction between A and B: A + B products Use the following initial rate data to calculate the rate constant for this reaction. [A] (mol/L) [B] (mol/L) Initial Rate (mol/L s) 0.20 1.0 3.0 0.50 1.0 11.8 2.0 2.0 189.5arrow_forwardA study of the rate of dimerization of C4H6 gave the data shown in the table: 2C4H6C8H12 (a) Determine the average rate of dimerization between 0 s and 1600 s, and between 1600 s and 3200 s. (b) Estimate the instantaneous rate of dimerization at 3200 s from a graph of time versus [C4H6]. What are the units of this rate? (c) Determine the average rate of formation of C8H12 at 1600 s and the instantaneous rate of formation at 3200 s from the rates found in parts (a) and (b).arrow_forwardConsider the following hypothetical data collected in two studies of the reaction 2A+2BC+2D Time(s) Experiment 1 [A] (mol/L) Experiment 2 [A] (mol/L) 0 1.0 102 1.0 102 10. 8.4 103 5.0 103 20. 7.1 103 2.5 103 30. ? 1.3 103 40. 5.0 103 6.3 104 In Experiment 1, [B]0 = 10.0 M. In Experiment 2, [B]0 = 20.0 M. Rate=[A]t a. Use the concentration versus time data to determine the rate law for the reaction. b. Solve for the value of the rate constant (k) for the reaction. Include units. c. Calculate the concentration of A in Experiment 1 at t =30.sarrow_forward
- Consider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.arrow_forwardIf the reaction:A+BC+D is designated as first order, the rate depends on: a.the concentration of only one reactant. b.the concentration of each reactant. c.no specific concentration. d.the temperature only.arrow_forwardExplain what is meant by the average rate of a reaction.arrow_forward

Explain each answer. a.H2O(l)+H+(aq)H3O+(aq) b.H3O+(aq)+H+(aq)H4O2+(aq) c.3H2(g)+N2(g)2NH3(g) d.Ba2+(aq)+SO42-(aq)BaSO4(s)arrow_forwardIf a textbook defined a catalyst as "a substance that increases the rate of a reaction," would that definition be adequate?arrow_forwardCobra venom helps the snake secure food by binding to acetylcholine receptors on the diaphragm of a bite victim, leading to the loss of function of the diaphragm muscle tissue and eventually death. In order to develop more potent antivenins, scientists have studied what happens to the toxin once it has bound the acetylcholine receptors. They have found that the toxin is released from the receptor in a process that can be described by the rate law Rate = k [acetylcholine receptortoxin complex] If the activation energy of this reaction at 37.0C is 26.2 kJ/mol and A = 0.850 s1. what is the rate of reaction if you have a 0.200M solution of receptor-toxin complex at 37.0C?arrow_forward
