Iodomethane (CH3I) is a commonly used reagent in organic chemistry. When used properly, this reagent allows chemists to introduce methyl groups in many different useful applications. The chemical does pose a risk as a carcinogen, possibly owing to iodomethanes ability to react with portions of the DNA strand (if they were to come in contact). Consider the following hypothetical initial rates data: [DNA]0 ( mol/L) [CH3I]0 ( mol/L) Initial Rate (mol/Ls) 0.100 0.100 3.20 104 0.100 0.200 6.40 104 0.200 0.200 1.28 103 Which of the following could be a possible mechanism to explain the initial rate data?

When two cotton plugs. one moistened with ammonia and the other with hydrochloric acid, are simultaneously inserted into opposite ends of a glass tube that is 87.0 cm long, a white 1111g of NH4Cl forms where gaseous NH3 and gaseous HC1 first come into contact. NH3(g)+HCl(g)NH4Cl(s) At approximately what distance from the ammonia moistened plug does this occur? (Hint: Calculate the rates of diffusion for both NH3 and HCI, and find out how much faster NH3 diffuses than HCI.)
Amoxicillin is an antibiotic packaged as a powder. When it is used to treat babies and small animals, the pharmacist or veterinarian must suspend it in water, so that it can be administered orally with a medicine dropper. The label says to dispose of unused suspension after 14 days. It also points out that refrigeration is required. In the context of this chapter, what is implied in the latter two statements?
Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?
Consider the reaction between 50.0 mL liquid methanol, CH3OH (density = 0.850 g/mL), and 22.8 L O2 at 27C and a pressure of 2.00 atm. The products of the reaction are CO2(g) and H2O(g). Calculate the number of moles of H2O formed if the reaction goes to completion.

105 The decomposition of mercury(II) thiocyanate produces an odd brown snake-like mass that is so unusual the process was once used in fireworks displays. There are actually several reactions that take place when the solid Hg(SCN)2 is ignited: 2Hg(SCN)2(s)2HgS(s)+CS2(s)+C3N4(s)CS2(s)+3O2(g)CO2(g)+2SO2(g)2C3N4(s)3(CN)2(g)+N2(g)HgS(s)+O2(g)Hg(l)+SO2(g) A 42.4-g sample of Hg(SCN)2 is placed into a 2.4-L vessel at 21°C. The vessel also contains air at a pressure of 758 torr. The container is sealed and the mixture is ignited, causing the reaction sequence above to occur. Once the reaction is complete, the container is cooled back to the original temperature of 21°C. (a) Without doing numerical calculations, predict whether the final pressure in the vessel will be greater than, less than, or equal to the initial pressure. Explain your answer. (b) Calculate the final pressure and compare your result with your prediction. (Assume that the mole fraction of O2 in air is 0.21.)
Classify the following processes according to their rates as very slow, slow, or fast: a.The souring of milk stored in a refrigerator b.The cooking of an egg in boiling water c.The rusting of a shovel left in the garden over the winter d.The growing of corn during a warm summer e.The burning of a lighted match.
Carbon monoxide, CO, and oxygen, O2, react according to 2CO(g)+O2(g)2CO2(g) Assuming that the reaction takes place and goes to completion, determine what substances remain and what their partial pressures are after the valve is opened in the apparatus represented in the accompanying figure. Also assume that the temperature is fixed at 300 K.
