A study of the rate of the reaction represented as 2A⟶ B gave the following data:

  1. Determine the average rate of disappearance of A between 0.0 s and 10.0 s, and between 10.0 s and 20.0 s.
  2. Estimate the instantaneous rate of disappearance of A at 15.0 s from a graph of time versus (A). What are the units of this rate?
  3. Use the rates found in parts (a) and (b) to determine the average rate of formation of B between 0.00 s and 10.0 s, and the instantaneous rate of formation of B at 15.0 s.

Short Answer

Expert verified

1.The average rate of disappearance of A between 0.0 s and 10.0 s is 0.0374 M/s and Average rate of disappearance of A between 10.0 s and 20.0 s is 0.0255M/s.

2.The instantaneous rate of disappearance of A at 15.0 s from a graph of time versus (A) is 0.05M/s and the units of this rate is \({\bf{mol \times }}{{\bf{L}}^{{\bf{ - 1}}}}{\bf{ \times }}{{\bf{s}}^{{\bf{ - 1}}}}\).

3.The average rate of formation of B between 0.00 s and 10.0 s is get 0.0188M/s and the instantaneous rate of formation of B at 15.0 s is 0.025.

Step by step solution

01

Determine average rate of disappearance

\(\frac{{{\bf{ - \Delta A}}}}{{{\bf{2\Delta t}}}}{\bf{ = }}\frac{{{\bf{\Delta B}}}}{{{\bf{\Delta t}}}}\)

Average rate of disappearance from 0s to 10s

\(\begin{aligned}{}{\bf{ = }}\frac{{{\bf{ - \Delta A}}}}{{{\bf{\Delta t}}}}\\{\bf{ = }}\frac{{{\bf{0}}{\bf{.370 - 0}}{\bf{.625}}}}{{{\bf{20 - 10}}}}\\{\bf{ = 0}}{\bf{.0255M/s}}\end{aligned}\)

Average rate of disappearance from 10s to 20s

\(\begin{aligned}{}{\bf{ = }}\frac{{{\bf{ - \Delta A}}}}{{{\bf{\Delta t}}}}\\{\bf{ = }}\frac{{{\bf{0}}{\bf{.370 - 0}}{\bf{.625}}}}{{{\bf{20 - 10}}}}\\{\bf{ = 0}}{\bf{.0255M/s}}\end{aligned}\)

02

Determine the instantaneous rate of disappearance

Linear from of each order to plot point A y-axis, ln A y-axis and 1/A y-axis

First order:

\(\begin{aligned}{}\left( {\bf{A}} \right){\bf{ = - kt + (}}{{\bf{A}}_{\bf{0}}}{\bf{)}}\\{\bf{In}}\,\,\left( {\bf{A}} \right){\bf{ = - kt + In(}}{{\bf{A}}_{\bf{0}}}{\bf{)}}\\\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{{\bf{(A)}}}}{\bf{ = kt + }}\frac{{\bf{1}}}{{{\bf{(}}{{\bf{A}}_{\bf{0}}}{\bf{)}}}}\end{aligned}\)

Here notice that second order is most linear

Rate = \(\frac{{{\bf{ - d(A)}}}}{{{\bf{2dt}}}}{\bf{ = k(A}}{{\bf{)}}^{\bf{2}}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, - - - - {\bf{(1)}}\)

we find k is 0.116 from slope of graph and at 15s (A)=0.465 to put all value in equation (1)

rate of disappearance of A is 0.05M/s

03

Determine average rate of formation

\(\frac{{{\bf{ - \Delta A}}}}{{{\bf{2\Delta t}}}}{\bf{ = }}\frac{{{\bf{\Delta B}}}}{{{\bf{\Delta t}}}}\,\,\,\,\,...{\rm{ }}\left( {\bf{2}} \right)\)

We divided the rate in part (a) and (b) by 2 to get 0.0188M/s and 0.25M/s respectively.

The average rate of formation of B between 0.00 s and 10.0 s is get 0.0188M/s and the instantaneous rate of formation of B at 15.0 s is 0.025.

Ingeneral, can we predict the effect of doubling the concentration of A on the rate of the overall reaction A + B⟶C? Can we predict the effect if the reaction is known to be an elementary reaction?

The rate constant at 325°C for the decomposition reaction \({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{8}}} \to {\bf{2}}{{\bf{C}}_{\bf{2}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{4}}}\)is 6.1 × 10−8 s−1, and the activation energy is 261 kJ per mole of\({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{8}}}\). Determine the frequency factor for the reaction.

Iodine-131 is a radioactive isotope that is used to diagnose and treat some forms of thyroid cancer. Iodine-131 decays to xenon-131 according to the equation:I-131⟶Xe-131 + electron. The decay is first-order with a rate constant of 0.138 d−1. All radioactive decay is first order. How many days will it take for 90% of the iodine−131 in a 0.500 M solution of this substance to decay to Xe-131?

Compare the functions of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts.

Some bacteria are resistant to the antibiotic penicillin because they produce penicillinase, an enzyme with a molecular weight of \({\bf{3 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{\bf{4}}}\)g/mole that converts penicillin into inactive molecules. Although the kinetics of enzyme-catalysed reactions can be complex, at low concentrations this reaction can be described by a rate equation that is first order in the catalyst (penicillinase) and that also involves the concentration of penicillin. From the following data: 1.0 L of a solution containing 0.15 µg (\({\bf{0}}{\bf{.15 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 6}}}}\)g) of penicillinase, determine the order of the reaction with respect to penicillin and the value of the rate constant.
