After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.arrow_forwardIf the reaction:A+BC+D is designated as first order, the rate depends on: a.the concentration of only one reactant. b.the concentration of each reactant. c.no specific concentration. d.the temperature only.arrow_forward

- In Chapter 3, we discussed the conversion of biomass into biofuels. One important area of research associated with biofuels is the identification and development of suitable catalysts to increase the rate at which fuels can be produced. Do a web search to find an article describing biofuel catalysts. Then, write one or two sentences describing the reactions being catalyzed, and identify the catalyst as homogeneous or heterogeneous.arrow_forward11.102 Suppose that you are studying a reaction and need to determine its rate law.
