Consider the following balanced chemical equation: H₂O2 (aq) +31 (aq) + 2 H+ (aq) → 13 (aq) + 2 H₂O (1) In the first 54.3 seconds of the reaction, the concentration of 13 increased from 0.471 M to 0.925 M. What is the average reaction rate over this time interval (in mol L-1s¯¹)? Remember: if you want to express an answer in scientific notation, use the letter "E". For example "4.32 x 104" should be entered as "4.32E4".

For the reaction 2NO2(g)2NO(g)+O2(g) make qualitatively correct plots of the concentrations of NO2(g), NO(g), and O2(g) versus time. Draw all three graphs on the same axes; assume that you start with NO2(g) at a concentration of 1.0 mol/L. Explain how you would determine, from these plots, (a) the initial rate of the reaction. (b) the final rate (that is, the rate as time approaches infinity).
Consider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.

The initial rate for a reaction is equal to the slope of the tangent line at t 0 in a plot of [A] versus time. From calculus, initial rate = d[A]dt . Therefore. the differential rate law for a reaction is Rate = d[A]dt=k[A]n. Assuming you have some calculus in your background, derive the zero-, first-, and second-order integrated rate laws using the differential rate law.

Candle wax is a mixture of hydrocarbons. In the reaction of oxygen with candle w ax in Figure 11.2, the rate of consumption of oxygen decreased with time after the flask was covered, and eventually' the flame went out. From the perspective of the kinetic-molecular theory, describe what is happening in the flask. FIGURE 11.2 When a candle burns in a closed container, the flame will diminish and eventually go out. As the amount of oxygen present decreases, the rate of combustion will also decrease. Eventually, the rate of combustion is no longer sufficient to sustain the flame even though there is still some oxygen present in the vessel.
