- 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.arrow_forwardList at least four experimentally determined parameters that you, an experimenter, can define when exploring the hydrolysis of ethyl benzoate by aqueous sodium hydroxide.arrow_forwardAn enzyme kinetics experiment is carried out by adding 1.00mg of a 50.0kDa enzyme into a total volume of 50uL of buffer, and measuring the initial rates while adding increasing amounts of substrate (1 Da = 1 g/mol). The calculated Vmax from this series of experiments was 30.5mM/s. Calculate the turnover number for the enzyme.arrow_forward

If it is desired to prepare a suspension of the drug containing 2.5 g/100 mL, calculate the zero-order rate constant, k0, and the shelf-life, that is, the time in days required for the drug to decompose to 90% of its original concentration (at 35?C) in solution. Note: 100 mL = 1 deciliter = 1 dL.arrow_forward
