While investigating the properties of other diatomic molecules, the student finds the diagram below, which shows the potential energy of two iodine atoms versus the distance between their nuclei. The student also finds that the I - I bond energy is slightly less than the F – F bond energy.

Determine the rate law, the integrated rate law, and the value of the rate constant for this reaction. b. If the initial concentration of C2H5OH was 1.25 102 M, calculate the half-life for this reaction. c. How much time is required for all the 1.25 102 M C2H5OH to decompose?
A drug decomposes in the blood by a first-order process. A pill containing 0.500 g of the active ingredient reaches its maximum concentration of 2.5 mg/ 100 mL of blood. If the half-life of the active ingredient is 75 min, what is its concentration in the blood 2.0 h after the maximum concentration has been reached?
For the past 10 years, the unsaturated hydrocarbon 1, 3-butadiene (CH2 = CH - CH = CH2) has ranked 38th among the top 50 industrial Chemicals. It is used primarily for the manufacture of synthetic rubber. An isomer exists also as cyclobutene: The isomerization of cyclobutene to butadiene is first-order and the rate constant has been measured as 2.0104s1 at 150 C in a 0.53-L ?ask. Determine the partial pressure of cyclobutene and its concentration after 30.0 minutes if an isomerization reaction is carried out at 150 C with an initial pressure of 55 torr.

The acid-catalyzed iodination of acetone CH3COCH3(aq) + I2(aq) CH3COCH2I(aq) + HI(aq) is a common laboratory experiment used in general chemistry courses to teach the method of initial rates. The reaction is followed spectrophotometrically by the disappearance of the color of iodine in the solution. The following data (J. P. Birk and D. L Walters, Journal of Chemical Education, Vol. 69, p. 585, 1992) were collected at 23 C for this reaction. Determine the rate law for this reaction.
Regular ?ights of supersonic aircraft in the stratosphere ale of concern because such aircraft produce nitric oxide, NO, as a byproduct in the exhaust of their engines. Nitric oxide reacts with ozone, and it has been suggested that this could contribute to depletion of the ozone layer. The reaction NO+O3NO2+O2 is first order with respect to both NO and O3 with a rate constant of 2.20107 L/mol/s. What is the instantaneous rate of disappearance of NO when [NO]=3.3106 M and [O3]=5.9107M?
The initial rate for a reaction is equal to the slope of the tangent line at t 0 in a plot of [A] versus time. From calculus, initial rate = d[A]dt . Therefore. the differential rate law for a reaction is Rate = d[A]dt=k[A]n. Assuming you have some calculus in your background, derive the zero-, first-, and second-order integrated rate laws using the differential rate law.
