Question



P1. (Sec. 12.1) Using the following hypothetical balanced reaction, which one of the following Sec. 12.Using the following hypothetical balanced reaction, which one of the following is no a valid epesion for the rate of the reaSIR220 is not a valid expression for the rate of the reaction? a) Rate =-3[A] / t b) Rate (12) [C] / t c) Rate-23, [B] / t d) All of the above are valid expressions of the reaction rate. e) P2. (Sec. 12.1) Using the following balanced equation, which one of the following is not a valid expression for the rate of the reaction? CHCl3 + Cl] CCl4 + HCl a) b) c) d) e) Rate = [HCl] / t Rate--(1 /2) [Cb] / t Rate =-A(CHC13] / t Rate = [CC11] / t All of the above are valid expressions of the reaction rate.

Explanation / Answer

P1)

rate can be written in terms of B as:

rate = -(1/3)*[B]/t

so, c is wrong

Answer: c

P2)

rate can be written in terms of Cl2 as:

rate = -*[Cl2]/t

so, b is wrong

Answer: b

P3)

see experiment 2 and 1:

[H2] doubles

[NO] is constant

rate doubles

so, oder of H2 is 1

see experiment 3 and 1:

[H2] is constant

[NO] doubles

rate becomes 4 times

so, oder of NO is 2

overall order = 1 + 2 = 3

Answer: c

P4)

see experiment 2 and 3:

[S2O8-2] doubles

[I-1] is constant

rate doubles

so, oder of S2O8-2 is 1

see experiment 2 and 1:

[S2O8-2] is constant

[I-1] doubles

rate doubles

so, oder of I-1 is 1

overall order = 1 + 1 = 2

Answer: b
