Problem 35.5

Part A

For the following rate expression, state the order of the reaction with respect to ClO, BrO and the total order of the reaction:
R=k[ClO][BrO]

Express your answers as integers separated by commas.

Part B

For the following rate expression, state the order of the reaction with respect to NO, O2 and the total order of the reaction:
R=k[NO]2[O2]

Express your answers as integers separated by commas.

Part C

For the following rate expression, state the order of the reaction with respect to HI, O2, H+ and the total order of the reaction:
R=k[HI]2[O2][H+]1/2

Express your answers using two significant figures separated by commas.

Explanation / Answer

Part A
R=k[ClO][BrO]
order with respect to ClO = 1
order with respect to BrO = 1
Overall order = 1+1 = 2
Answer: 1.0, 1.0, 2.0

Part B
R=k[NO]2[O2]
order with respect to NO = 2
order with respect to O2 = 1
Overall order = 2+1 = 3
Answer: 2.0, 1.0, 3.0

Part C
R=k[HI]2[O2][H+]1/2
order with respect to HI = 2
order with respect to O2 = 1
order with respect to H+ = 1/2
Overall order = 2+1+1/2 = 3.5
Answer: 2.0, 1.0, 3.5
