Chapter 11, Problem 81QAP

The hypothetical reaction

$\text{QR}+\text{X}\to \text{products}$was monitored at 27°C as a function of time. The following plots are obtained:

(a) Write the rate expression for the reaction.

(b) What is the rate constant if the rate of the reaction is 0.29 mol/L $\cdot$

min when $\left[\text{QR}\right]=\left[\text{X}\right]=1.000M$?

(c) What is the half-life for the consumption of QR when $\left[\text{QR}\right]=0.0866M$?

(d) If the initial concentration of $\left[\text{X}\right]=5.00M$, what is $\left[\text{X}\right]$ after 4.7 min?
