- Draw an energy diagram for a reaction in which the products are higher in energy than the starting materials and Ea is large. Clearly label all of the following on the diagram: the axes, the starting materials, the products, the transition state, ΔHo, and Ea.arrow_forwardFor the reaction A2 + B2 → 2AB, Ea(fwd) = 125 kJ/mol and Ea(rev) = 85 kJ/mol. Assuming the reaction occurs in one step, (a) draw a reaction energy diagram; (b) calculate ΔH°rxn; and (c) sketch a possible transition state.arrow_forward(a) Select all of the correct statements about reaction rates from the choices below. The lower the rate of a reaction the longer it takes to reach completion.Reaction rates increase with increasing temperature.The slowest step in a reaction is called the rate-determining step.Catalysts increase reaction rates.The fastest step in a reaction is called the rate-determining step.As a reaction progresses its rate goes down.Reaction rates can show little change as masses of solid reactants increase.arrow_forward
- Consider the following reaction: (a) The rate law for this reaction is first order in HBr(g) and first order in O₂(g). What is the rate law for this reaction? Rate = k [HBr(g)] [O₂(g)] O Rate = k [HBr(g)]² [O₂(g)] O Rate = k [HBr(g)] [O₂(g)]² O Rate = k [HBr(g)]² [0₂(g)]² O Rate = k [HBr(g)] [O₂(g)]³ O Rate = k [HBr(g)]4 [0₂(g)] (b) If the rate constant for this reaction at a certain temperature is 11500, what is the reaction rate when [HBr(g)] = 0.00379 M and [O₂(g)] = 0.00876 M? Rate = 4 HBr(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g) + 2 Br₂(g) M/s. Rate = (c) What is the reaction rate when the concentration of HBr(g) is doubled, to 0.00758 M while the concentration of O₂(g) is 0.00876 M? M/Sarrow_forwardConsider the following reaction: (a) The rate law for this reaction is first order in NO₂(g) and first order in O3(g). What is the rate law for this reaction? O Rate = k [NO₂(g)] [03(9)] Rate = k [NO₂(g)]² [03(9)] O Rate = k [NO₂(g)] [03(9)]² O Rate = k [NO₂(g)]² [03(g)]² Rate = k [NO₂(g)] [03(g)]³ Rate = k [NO₂(g)]4 [03(9)] (b) If the rate constant for this reaction at a certain temperature is 73200, what is the reaction rate when [NO₂(g)] = 0.973 M and [O3(9)] = 1.42 M? Rate = 2 NO₂(g) + 03(g) → N₂05(9) + O₂(g) M/s. Rate = (c) What is the reaction rate when the concentration of NO₂(g) is doubled, to 1.95 M while the concentration of O3(g) is 1.42 M? M/sarrow_forwardThe graph below is a plot of the distribution or fraction of molecules having certain kinetic energies. These molecules can undergo reaction with an activation energy of Ea.

(B) Which region of the graph corresponds to the fraction of molecules that do not have enough energy to react?arrow_forward
