The degradation of CF3CH2F (an HFC) by OH radicals inthe troposphere is first order in each reactant and has arate constant of k = 1.6 x 108 M-1s-1 at 4 °C. If the troposphericconcentrations of OH and CF3CH2F are 8.1 x 105and 6.3 x 108 molecules/cm3, respectively, what is the rateof reaction at this temperature in M/s?

hello, i sent this question before but the answer you rpovided for both wasnt right and i couldnt undertstand how you got the answer. can you please show me a handwritten solution for better understanding. 1a) The decomposition of ethanol at some constant temperature (above 500°C), over a copper surface, C2H5OH(g) CH3CHO(g) + H2(g) was studied by monitoring the total pressure with time.The following data were obtained: t (s) Ptotal (torr) 0 120 45 131 139 154 233 177 376 212 380 213 What will be the total pressure at t = 462 s? 1b) What is the rate constant (k)?(Include appropriate units.)
In the stratosphere, hydroxyl radical (OH) is produced and consumed by the following reactions: k1O* + H2O –––> 2OH k2OH + CH4 –––––––> H2O + CH3 k2-bottom = 7.9 x 10-16 cm3 molec-1 s-1 at the b k2-top = 4.6 x 10-15 cm3 molec-1 s-1a.(3) Based on the rate laws for these reactions, write an equation for the steady-state concentration of hydroxyl radical in the stratosphere.
One of the many remarkable enzymes in the human bodyis carbonic anhydrase, which catalyzes the interconversionof carbon dioxide and water with bicarbonate ionand protons. If it were not for this enzyme, the body couldnot rid itself rapidly enough of the CO2 accumulated bycell metabolism. The enzyme catalyzes the dehydration(release to air) of up to 107 CO2 molecules per second.Which components of this description correspond to theterms enzyme, substrate, and turnover number?
A proposed mechanism for ozone destruction in the late spring overnorthern latitudes in the lower stratosphere begins with the photochemicaldecomposition of ClONO2 to Cl and NO3, followed by photochemicaldecomposition of the latter to NO and O2. Deduce a catalytic ozonedestruction cycle, requiring no atomic oxygen, which incorporates thesereactions. What is the overall reaction?
