Question

In a chemical reaction, X reacts to produce Y:

  3X → 2Y

The concentrations of X and Y are measured with time:

t/s:      0.00      1.00     2.00      4.00      8.00      16.0

X/M:  1.000    0.705   0.526    0.352    0.264    0.250

Y/M:  0.000    0.197   0.316    0.432    0.491    0.500

 

The concentration of reactant X varies with time:

        X = (X0 – XFekt + XF

The concentration of product Y varies with time:

Y = (YF – Y0) (1 – ekt)

What is the rate constant k for the reaction?

 

Question 18 options:

 

k = 0.33

 

k = 0.25

 

k = 0.50

What is amount of Y produced after 3.00 s?

 

Question 19 options:

 

0.375 M

 

0.388 M

 

0.362 M

At what time does the concentration of X become 0.5 M?

 

Question 20 options:

 

2.1 s

 

2.2 s

 

2.3 s
