Question

Butadiene, C4H6, dimerizes according to the ff. reaction:
            C4H6 (g)    →    C8H12(g)

The dimerization is a second order reaction. It takes 145 seconds for the concentration of C4H6  to go from 0.350 M to 0.197 M.

(a) What is k for the dimerization?
(b) What is the half-life of the reaction when butadiene is 0.200M?
(c) How long will it take to dimerize 28.9% of a 0.558 M sample?
(d) How fast is 0.128 M butadiene dimerizing?
