(a)
Interpretation:
The molecularity and rate law for the following elementary reaction needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Molecularity can be defined as the total number of ions or molecules that take part in the rate-determining reaction or the molecules or atoms present on the reactant side.
Rate law of an elementary reaction can be calculated from the molecularity because the elementary reaction defines the individual event.

- 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_forwardNitrogen monoxide is reduced by hydrogen to give nitrogen and water: 2 NO(g) + 2 H2(g) N2(g) + 2 H2O(g) One possible mechanism for this reaction involves the following reactions: 2 NO(g) N2O2(g) N2O2(g) + H2(g) N2O(g) + H2O(g) N2O(g) + H2(g) N2(g) + H2O(g) What is the molecularity of each of the three steps? What is the rate equation for the third step? Identify the intermediates in this reaction; how many different intermediates are there? Show that the sum of these elementary steps gives the equation for the overall reaction.arrow_forwardOne possible mechanism for the decomposition of nitryl chloride, NO2CI, is What is the overall reaction? What rate law would be derived from this mechanism? What effect does increasing the concentration of the product NO2 have on the reaction rate?arrow_forward
- Hundreds of different reactions occur in the stratosphere, among them reactions that destroy the Earths ozone layer. The table below lists several (second-order) reactions of Cl atoms with ozone and organic compounds; each is given with its rate constant. For equal concentrations of Cl and the other reactant, which is the slowest reaction? Which is the fastest reaction?arrow_forwardSucrose, a sugar, decomposes in acid solution to give glucose and fructose. The reaction is first-order in sucrose, and the rate constant at 25 C is k = 0.21 h1. If the initial concentration of sucrose is 0.010 mol/L, what is its concentration after 5.0 h?arrow_forward
