Question

the first order rate constant assume the first order rate constant assume the first order rate constant at a given temperature for the hydrolysis of t-Bucl was 8.5 x 10 ^-5 sec, and that you started with 150 ml of 0.0750 M t-Buclwhat would the molarity of t-Bucl be after the reaction has taken place for 60 minutes? after 90 minutes? after 120 minutes? b. how many milliter of 0.200 M NaOH would be neutralized by the HCL produced after 60 mins? after 90 minutes? after 120 minutes? treat the problem as a neutralization process

Explanation / Answer

a) For a first order reaction, In(0.0750 M/c) = 8.5 x 10^-5 (t)

After 60 min, c = 5.523 x 10^-2 M

After 90 min, c = 4.739 x 10^-2 M

After 120 min, c = 4.067 x 10^-2 M

b) 0.2V = (No. of moles of HCl produced)

After 60 min, V = 750(0.075 - 0.05523) = 14.8275 ml

After 90 min, V = 750(0.075 - 0.04739) = 20.7075 ml

After 120 min, V = 750(0.075 - 0.04067) = 25.7475 ml
