Accepted Answer

The rate law for a second-order reaction is:rate = k[A]^2where k is the rate constant and [A] is the concentration of the reactant.We can use the integrated rate law to determine the concentration of [A] at any time t:1/[A] = kt + 1/[A]0where [A]0 is the initial concentration of [A].We can use the data given in the question to determine the value of k:1/2.935 - 1/3.024 = k(1.0 - 0)k = 0.089 M^-1 min^-1Now we can use the integrated rate law to determine the concentration of [A] after 4 min:1/[A] = 0.089 M^-1 min^-1 * 4 min + 1/3.024 M[A] = 2.70 MTherefore, the correct answer is A) 2.70 M.

Question 8

In the first-order, reaction A → products, [A] = 0.400 M initially and 0.250 M after 15.0 min, what is the half-life of the reaction?

Accepted Answer

The half-life of a first-order reaction is given by $t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k}$, where $k$ is the rate constant. To find $k$, we use the first-order rate law: $\ln\left(\frac{[A]_0}{[A]}\right) = kt$. Substituting the given values, $\ln\left(\frac{0.400}{0.250}\right) = k \times 15.0$, we can solve for $k$ and then calculate $t_{1/2}$. The calculation yields a half-life of approximately 22.1 minutes.

Question 11

For the reaction: 2NO₂(g) → 2NO(g) + O₂(g) concentration-time data are: What is the order of the reaction with respect to [NO₂]?

Accepted Answer

The order of the reaction with respect to [NO₂] is determined by comparing the initial rates of the reaction at different [NO₂] concentrations. From the data, we can see that when [NO₂] is doubled (from 0.10 to 0.20 mol/L), the initial rate is also doubled (from 5.2 to 10.4 mmol/L/s). This indicates that the reaction is first order with respect to [NO₂].

Question 12

For a reaction with a second order rate constant, what is the correct unit?

Accepted Answer

For a second order reaction, the rate constant k has units of M-1 ∙ time-1. This is because the rate of reaction is proportional to the concentration of both reactants raised to the power of 1, hence the term M-1. The term time-1 comes from the fact that the rate is dependent on the time it takes for the reactants to react. Therefore, the correct unit for k is M-1 ∙ time-1.
