Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 48PS
The mechanism for the reaction of CH3OH and HBr is believed to involve two steps. The overall reaction is exothermic.
Step 1: Fast, endothermic
CH3OH + H+ ⇄ CH3OH2+
Step 2: Slow
CH3OH2+ + Br− → CH3Br + H2O
- (a) Write an equation for the overall reaction.
- (b) Draw a reaction coordinate diagram for this reaction.
- (c) Show that the rate law for this reaction is Rate = k[CH3OH][H+][Br−].

Do (c) (i) as soon as possible.
When 2-chloro-2-methylpropane, (CH3)3CCl, reacts with aqueous sodium hydroxide, the process is not a “concerted process”; instead a reactive intermediate, (CH3)3C+, is formed as a result of the first step of the reaction mechanism.
Explain why this happens.
Calculate the energy change of the following reaction:
2NO + O2→ 2NO2
ΔH:
NO = 90.0 kJ/mol
NO2= 34.0 kJ/mol
O2= 0.0 kJ/mol
a
-180 kJ
b
-112 kJ
c
35.0 kJ
d
-248 kJ
