Explanation / Answer

Q3.

a) True. But the rate constant may vary with temperature.

b) True.

Note : If one of the reactants in taken in excess, it may show a pseudo-first order reaction.

c) False. If one of the reactants reacts with A or B to give another product, then this rate law will be invalid.

d) False.

Q4.

Primary reaction :

2I - (aq) + S2O82-(aq) -----> I2 (aq) + 2 SO4-2 (aq)

The "clock" reaction is the reaction of a very small amount of S2O32- (thiosulfate) with the I2 produced in the primary reaction:

I2 (aq) + 2 S2O32- (aq) -----> 2I- (aq) + S4O62-(aq)

The stoichiometry of the second reaction shows that the number of moles of I- formed are requal to the the number of moles of S2O32-

The blue color will appear when 0.006 M I- has been formed by the primary reaction.
