Question
Name: 1. The rate law for the reaction: AB2C is found by experiment to be: Rate k (AIB A. What is the overall order of the reaction, based on its rate law? B. Ifgraphs are drawn of kiA). 1MA), IIB], and 1/1B] versus time, which graphs should be linear? Explain your answer. 2. Explain the meaning of the term "half-life. 3. What is the essential difference between the integrated and differential forms of the rate law, in terms of the information they provide? 4. f a reaction is found to be 'zero-order" with respect to reactant A, what information does this give you?Explanation / Answer
I am solving the first and second question as per Chegg guidelines (as per guidelines, we are bound to solve first problem complete only), post multiple question to get the remaining answer
Q1
a) Overall order = Order of reaction wrt A + Order of reaction wrt B
=> 1 + 2
=> 3
Hence the overall order of the reaction is equal to 3
b) Since the order of reaction wrt A is 1, hence the rate law for first order reaction will be
ln(Ao/At) = kt
Therefore, the graph will be linear for ln[A]
Since the order of reaction wrt B is 2, hence the rate law for first order reaction will be
1/[Bt] = 1/[Bo] + kt
Therefore, the graph will be linear for 1/[B] versus time
Therefore, linear graphs will be ln[A] and 1/[B] versus time
Q2)
The half life of the reaction determines the time taken to reach half the initial concentration of the reactant
