Question

Given the rate equation...
RATE = ([ Na2S2O3]/time) = k [I-]a [BrO3-]b [HCl]c
1A) You mix together in the proper manner the following:

10.0 mL of .0100 M Potassium Iodide

10.0 mL of .00100 M Sodium thiosulfate

10.0 mL of water

10.0 mL of .0400 M Potassium Bromate

10.0 mL of .100 M HCl

The time to turn blue is... 75 sec

1B) You also mix together in the proper manner the following:

10.0 mL of .0100 M Potassium Iodide

10.0 mL of .00100 M Sodium thiosulfate

10.0 mL of .0400 M Potassium Bromate

20.0 mL of .100 M HCl

The time to turn blue is... 20 sec
Calculate:
The Experimental value of exponent c..._______________ (a)

2) If the exponents a, b, and c have the values:
a = 1;  b = 2;  c = 2
CALCULATE:
Rate constant k for data in 1B...______________ (b)

3) You mix together in the proper manner the following VOLUMES:

0.0100 M Potassium iodide...9.7 mL

0.0010 M Sodium thiosulfate...6.0 mL

Distilled water...15.6 mL

0.0400 M Potassium Bromate...10.7 mL

0.100 M Hydrochloric acid...5.3 mL

Using the rate constant and rate equation from problem 2),

CALCULATE the time to turn blue...__________________ sec (c)

4) A plot of log Rate vs 1/T gives a best straight line which goes through....
   1/T = 0.00300, log rate = -5.00
and 1/T = 0.00365, log rate = -6.00.
CALCULATE:
The Slope of the line..._____________ (d)

The Activation Energy (Ea) (Kj/mol)...________________(e)

Explanation / Answer

when you doubled the concentration of HCl the reaction went essentially 4X's faster
instead of taking 100 seconds, it took only 27 seconds

that's an effect of by the square

Rate = [2 X's as much HCl]^2

Rate = 4 X's faster
