Chapter 13, Problem 13.88QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The rate equation for the given elementary reactions has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

The rate of reaction is the quantity of formation of product or the quantity of reactant used per unit time.  The rate of reaction doesn’t depend on the sum of amount of reaction mixture used.

The raise in molar concentration of product of a reaction per unit time or decrease in molarity of reactant per unit time is called rate of reaction and is expressed in units of $\text{mol/(L}\text{.s)}$.

The equation that relates the reaction rate to the reactants concentrations that is raised to various powers is called as rate law.

To write the rate equation for the equation ${\text{CS}}_{\text{2}}\to \text{CS+S}$
