You run the reaction twice by keeping one reactant at a much higher pressure than the other reactant (this lower-pressure reactant begins at 1.000 atm). Unfortunately, you neglect to record which reactant was at the higher pressure, and you forget which it was later. Your data for the first experiment are: Pressure of HF (atm) Time(min) 0 0 0.300 30.0 0.600 65.8 0.900 110.4 1.200 169.1 1.500 255.9 When you ran the second experiment (in which the higher pressure reactant was run at a much higher pressure), you determine the values of the apparent rate constants to be the same. It also turns out that you find data taken from another person in the lab. This individual found that the reaction proceeds 40.0 times faster at 55C than at 35C. You also know, from the energy-level diagram, that there are three steps to the mechanism, and the first step has the highest activation energy. You look up the bond energies of the species involved and they are (in kJ/mol): H8H (432), F8F (154), and H8F (565). a. Sketch an energy-level diagram (qualitative) that is consistent with the one described previously. Hint: See Exercise 106. b. Develop a reasonable mechanism for the reaction. c.
