Chapter 13, Problem 13.8A

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Determine the initial rate of reaction in vessels 2 and 3given that there are three vessels 1,2 and 3 each containing both A and B molecules which are represented by red spheres and blue spheres respectively.

Concept Introduction:

Relationship of rate of the reaction to the rate constant and concentration of the reactantsraised to some powers which are experimentally determined are called as rate law.
Given:
Initial rate of the reaction in the vessel 1 is 0.01 M/s, Rate law for the Reaction $A+B\to C$ is $Rate=k{[A]}^2[B]$ , Figure showing three vessels (1),(2) and (3) with red spheres representing A molecules and blue spheres representing B molecules
