Q1// In an attempt to understand the mechanism of the depolarization process in a fuel cell, an
electro-kinetic model for mixed oxygen-methanol current on platinum was developed in the
laboratory at FAMU. A very simplified model of the reaction developed suggests a functional
relation in an integral form. To find the time required for 50% of the oxygen to be consumed, the
time, T is given by:

Use Simpson's 3/8 multiple segment rule with 6 segments to find the time required for 50% of the
oxygen to be consumed.
Consider the equilibrium system described by the chemical reaction below. A 1.00 L
reaction vessel was filled with 2.00 mol SO2 and 2.00 mol NO2 and allowed to react at
a high temperature. At equilibrium, there were 1.30 mol of NO in the vessel. Determine
the concentrations of all reactants and products at equilibrium and then calculate the
value of Kc for this reaction.
