Question

he equilibrium NH3(aq) + H2O(l) ↔NH4+(aq) + OH(aq) at 25 °C is subjected to a temperature jump which slightly increases the concentration of NH4+(aq) and OH(aq).

The measured relaxation time is 7.61 ns.

The equilibrium constant for the system is 1.78 × 10−5 at 25 °C, and the equilibrium concentration of NH3(aq) is 0.15 mol dm−3.

(a) Calculate the rate constant for the forward step.

kf,eff = _____________. Just value in 3 sig. fig., normal or exponential format,  e.g. type in 1.16E6 meaning 1.16 x 106, must use capital E here. Choose a unit in the next question, must be in one of those.

(b) choose a unit for the forward rate constant.
