- The Raschig reaction produces the industrially important reducing agent hydrazine, N2H4, from ammonia, NH3, and hypochlorite ion, OCl−, in basic aqueous solution. A proposed mechanism is Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: What is the overall stoichiometric equation? Which step is rate-limiting? What reaction intermediates are involved? What rate law is predicted by this mechanism?arrow_forwardThe decomposition of iodoethane in the gas phase proceeds according to the following equation: C2H5I(g)C2H4(g)+HI(g) At 660. K, k = 7.2 104 sl; at 720. K, k = 1.7 102 sl. What is the value of the rate constant for this first-order decomposition at 325C? If the initial pressure of iodoethane is 894 torr at 245C, what is the pressure of iodoethane after three half-lives?arrow_forwardAt 573 K, gaseous NO2(g) decomposes, forming NO(g) and O2(g). If a vessel containing NO2(g) has an initial concentration of 1.9 102 mol/L, how long will it take for 75% of the NO2(g) to decompose? The decomposition of NO2(g) is second-order in the reactant and the rate constant for this reaction, at 573 K, is 1.1 L/mol s.arrow_forward
- Express the rate of the reaction 2N2O(g)2N2(g)+O2(g) in terms of (b) [ N2O ] (a) [ O2 ]arrow_forwardOne experimental procedure that can be used to determine the rate law of a reaction is the method of initial rates. What data are gathered in the method of initial rates, and how are these data manipulated to determine k and the orders of the species in the rate law? Are the units for k. the rate constant, the same for all rate laws? Explain. If a reaction is first order in A, what happens to the rate if [A] is tripled? If the initial rate for a reaction increases by a factor of 16 when [A] is quadrupled, what is the order of n? If a reaction is third order in A and [A] is doubled, what happens to the initial rate? If a reaction is zero order, what effect does [A] have on the initial rate of a reaction?arrow_forwardThe reaction of compound A to give compounds C and D was found to be second-order in A. The rate constant for the reaction was determined to be 2.42 L/mol/s. If the initial concentration is 0.500 mol/L, what is the value of t1/2?arrow_forward
- The kinetics of the reaction, A + B → P, were studied and it was determined that the reaction rate increased by a factor of 9 when the concentration of B was tripled. What is the reaction order in B?arrow_forwardDetermine the order of the reaction with respect to X & Y Write the rate expression and calculate the value of the rate constant, giving its units. Hence explain whether or not the reaction can take place in a single step. Distinguish between the Initial rate of a reaction and the rate of a reactionarrow_forward
