A study of the rate of dimerization of \({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{6}}}\) gave the data shown in:

\({\bf{2}}{{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{6}}} \to {{\bf{C}}_{\bf{8}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{12}}}}\)

  1. Determine the average rate of dimerization between 0 s and 1600 s, and between 1600 s and 3200 s.
  2. Estimate the instantaneous rate of dimerization at 3200 s from a graph of time versus (\({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{6}}}\)). What are the units of this rate?

(c) Determine the average rate of formation of \({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{8}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{12}}}}\) at 1600 s and the instantaneous rate of formation at 3200 s from the rates found in parts (a) and (b).

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The average rate of dimerization between 0s and 1600s was found to be\({\bf{3}}{\bf{.1 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 6}}}}\)M/s and rate of dimerization between 1600s and 3200s was found to be\({\bf{1}}{\bf{.04 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 6}}}}\)M/s
  2. The instantaneous rate of dimerization at 3200s is\({\bf{ - 7}}{\bf{.83 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 7}}}}\)M/s and units of this rate is M/s
  3. The average rate of formation of \({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{8}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{12}}}}\) at 3200s is \({\bf{1}}{\bf{.55 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 6}}}}\) M/s

Step by step solution
