The following statements relate to the reaction for the formation of HI: H2(g) + I2(g) -* 2 HI(g) Rate = it[HJ [I2J Determine which of the following statements are true. If a statement is false, indicate why it is incorrect. The reaction must occur in a single step. This is a second-order reaction overall. Raising the temperature will cause the value of k to decrease. Raising the temperature lowers the activation energy' for this reaction. If the concentrations of both reactants are doubled, the rate will double. Adding a catalyst in the reaction will cause the initial rate to increase.
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.
Give at least two physical properties that might be used to determine the rate of a reaction.
Kinetics II You and a friend are working together in order to obtain as much kinetic information as possible about the reaction A(g)B(g)+C(g). One thing you know before performing the experiments is that the reaction is zero order, first order, or second order with respect to A. Your friend goes off, runs the experiment, and brings back the following graph. a After studying the curve of the graph, she declares that the reaction is second order, with a corresponding rate law of Rate = k[A]2. Judging solely on the basis of the information presented in this plot, is she correct in her statement that the reaction must be second order? Here are some data collected from her experiment: Time (s) [A] 0.0 1.0 1.0 0.14 3.0 2.5 103 5.0 4.5 105 7.0 8.3 107 b The half-life of the reaction is 0.35 s. Do these data support the reaction being second order, or is it something else? Try to reach a conclusive answer without graphing the data. c What is the rate constant for the reaction? d The mechanism for this reaction is found to be a two-step process, with intermediates X and Y. The first step of the reaction is the rate-determining step. Write a possible mechanism for the reaction. e You perform additional experiments and find that the rate constant doubles in value when you increase the temperature by 10oC. Your lab partner doesnt understand why the rate constant changes in this manner. What could you say to your partner to help her understand? Feel free to use figures and pictures as part of your explanation.
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.
