For a reaction, if the rate-determining step has a large activation energy, then the rate of the reaction will be very fast.
True
False
The acid-catalysed conversion of γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHBA) into its lactone, γ-butyrolactone (GBL) is a reversible reaction. The GHBA to GBL forward reaction is first-order with respect to the GHBA concentration; the GBL to GHBA reverse reaction is first-order with respect to the GBL concentration.
An experimental study of the kinetics of this reaction was undertaken in 0.2 mol L-1hydrochloric acid (HCl) at 298 K. The initial concentration of GHBA was 18.23 × 10-3mol L-1 . The concentration of GBL in solution was followed as a function of time (t), as indicated in Table B.3:

Use the data in Table B.3 to determine the equilibrium constant and the first-order rate constants for both forward and reverse reactions.
Consider the unimolecular reaction CH3NC(g)-->CH3NC(g), carried out in the presence of a helium buffer gas. The collison collison og a CH3NC molecule with either another CH3NC molecule or a helium atom can energize the molecule thereby leading to a reaction. If the energizing reactions involving a CH3NC molecule and a He atom occur with different rates, the reaction mechanism would be given by(picted below). Apply the steady state approximation to the intermediate species, CH3NC*, to show that rate=d{CH3CN}/dt=k3(k1{CH3NC}^2+k2{CH3NC}{He}/k1'{CH3NC}+k2'(He)+k3
Additionally determine the rate law when {He}=0

Suppose that you take 0.100 g of a drug three times a day and that the half-life for elimination is 2.0 days. Using this equation, calculate the mass of the drug in the body at saturation.
