7-11 Consider the following reaction:
Suppose we start the reaction with an initial iodomethane concentration of 0.260 M. This concentration increases to 0.840 M over a period of 1 h 20 min. What is the
Interpretation:
The rate of given reaction with initial concentration of iodomethane0.26 m and increased to 0.84 m in 1 h 20 min should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Rate of reaction:
The rate of any reaction depends on the concentration change of limiting reagent formed in a reaction.
Concentration:
Concentration of all chemical species takes part in a reaction depend on their moles present in per liter solution.
Answer to Problem 1P
Rate of reaction = 0.00725 M/min.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Reaction with initial concentration of iodomethane 0.26 m that increased to 0.84 m in 1 h 20 min.
Put the given values in above expression.
Rate of reaction = 0.00725 M/min.
