Chapter 12, Problem 53E
Consider the following initial rate data for the decomposition of compound AB to give A and B:
[AB]o (mol/L) | Initial Rate (mol/L · s) |
0.200 | 3.20 × 10–3 |
0.400 | 1.28 ×10–2 |
0.600 | 2.88 ×10–2 |

Could you please solve the first problem in this way and present it similarly but (color-coded) and step by step so I can understand it better? Thank you! I want to see what they are doing
Can you please help mne with this problem. Im a visual person, so can you redraw it, potentislly color code and then as well explain it. I know im given CO2 use that to explain to me, as well as maybe give me a second example just to clarify even more with drawings (visuals) and explanations.
