Report your answer with 2 decimals and units of M/s. (ii)lt takes 54 min for the concentration of a reactant in a first-order reaction to drop from 0.56 M to 0.14 M at 25°C. How long will it take (in minutes) for the reaction to be 73 % complete?

One experimental procedure that can be used to determine the rate law of a reaction is the method of initial rates. What data are gathered in the method of initial rates, and how are these data manipulated to determine k and the orders of the species in the rate law? Are the units for k. the rate constant, the same for all rate laws? Explain. If a reaction is first order in A, what happens to the rate if [A] is tripled? If the initial rate for a reaction increases by a factor of 16 when [A] is quadrupled, what is the order of n? If a reaction is third order in A and [A] is doubled, what happens to the initial rate? If a reaction is zero order, what effect does [A] have on the initial rate of a reaction?
Hydrogen iodide decomposes when heated, forming H2(g) and I2(g). The rate law for this reaction is [HI]/t = k[HI]2. At 443C, k = 30. L/mol min. If the initial HI(g) concentration is 1.5 102 mol/L, what concentration of HI(g) will remain after 10. minutes?
