- For the reaction of crystal violet with NaOH(aq), the measured rate of reaction is 1.27 106 mol L1 s1 when the concentration of crystal violet cation is 4.13 105 mol/L. (a) Estimate how long it will take for the concentration of crystal violet to drop from 4.30 105 mol/L to 3.96 105 mol/L. (b) Could you use the same method to make an accurate estimate of how long it would take for the concentration of crystal violet to drop from 4.30 105 mol/L to 0.43 105 mol/L? Explain why or why not.arrow_forwardConsider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.arrow_forwardOzone, O3, in the Earths upper atmosphere decomposes according to the equation 2 O3(g) 3 O2(g) The mechanism of the reaction is thought to proceed through an initial fast, reversible step followed by a slow, second step. Step 1: Fast, reversible O3(g) O2(g) + O(g) Step 2: Slow O3(g) + O(g) 2 O2(g) (a) Which of the steps is rate-determining? (b) Write the rate equation for the rate-determining steparrow_forward

Why does the average rate decrease with time? How does the instantaneous rate of a reaction depend on time? Why are initial rates used by convention?arrow_forward
- (Section 11-5) A rule of thumb is that for a typical reaction, if concentrations are unchanged, a 10-K rise in temperature increases the reaction rate by two to four times. Use an average increase of three times to answer the questions below. (a) What is the approximate activation energy of a typical chemical reaction at 298 K? (b) If a catalyst increases a chemical reactions rate by providing a mechanism that has a lower activation energy, then what change do you expect a 10-K increase in temperature to make in the rate of a reaction whose uncatalyzed activation energy of 75 kJ/mol has been lowered to one half this value (at 298 K) by addition of a catalyst?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_forwardCobra venom helps the snake secure food by binding to acetylcholine receptors on the diaphragm of a bite victim, leading to the loss of function of the diaphragm muscle tissue and eventually death. In order to develop more potent antivenins, scientists have studied what happens to the toxin once it has bound the acetylcholine receptors. They have found that the toxin is released from the receptor in a process that can be described by the rate law Rate = k [acetylcholine receptortoxin complex] If the activation energy of this reaction at 37.0C is 26.2 kJ/mol and A = 0.850 s1. what is the rate of reaction if you have a 0.200M solution of receptor-toxin complex at 37.0C?arrow_forward
