Chapter 13, Problem 100E

Consider the two reactions:

O + N 2 NO + N E a = 315 kJ / mol Cl + H 2 HCl + H E a = 23 kJ / mol

a. Why is the activation barrier for the first reaction so much higher than that for the second?

b. The frequency factors for these two reactions are very close to each other in value. Assuming that they are the same, calculate the ratio of the reaction rate constants for these two reactions at 25 °C.

Titanium(IV) chloride is then added to bring the total pressure to 3.00 atm. How many grams of titanium(III) chloride will be produced after completion of the reaction? (c) What will be the pressure of the resulting hydrogen chloride gas that is also produced?
