The hydrolysis of the sugar sucrose to the sugars glucose and fructose, \({{\bf{C}}_{{\bf{12}}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{22}}}}{{\bf{O}}_{{\bf{11}}}}{\bf{ + }}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{2}}}{\bf{O}} \to {{\bf{C}}_{\bf{6}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{12}}}}{{\bf{O}}_{\bf{6}}}{\bf{ + }}{{\bf{C}}_{\bf{6}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{12}}}}{{\bf{O}}_{\bf{6}}}\) follows a first-order rate equation for the disappearance of sucrose: \({\bf{Rate = k}}\left( {{{\bf{C}}_{{\bf{12}}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{22}}}}{{\bf{O}}_{{\bf{11}}}}} \right)\) (The products of the reaction, glucose and fructose, have the same molecular formulas but differ in the arrangement of the atoms in their molecules.)
Account for the increase in reaction rate brought about by a catalyst.
Radioactive phosphorus is used in the study of biochemical reaction mechanisms because phosphorus atoms are components of many biochemical molecules. The location of the phosphorus (and the location of the molecule it is bound in) can be detected from the electrons (beta particles) it produces:
\(\begin{aligned}{l}_{{\bf{15}}}^{{\bf{32}}}{\bf{P}} \to _{{\bf{16}}}^{{\bf{32}}}{\bf{S + }}{{\bf{e}}^{\bf{ - }}}\\{\bf{rate = 4}}{\bf{.85 \times 1}}{{\bf{0}}^{{\bf{ - 2}}}}\,{\bf{da}}{{\bf{y}}^{{\bf{ - 1}}}}{{\bf{(}}^{{\bf{32}}}}{\bf{p)}}\end{aligned}\)
What is the instantaneous rate of production of electrons in a sample with a phosphorus concentration of \({\bf{0}}{\bf{.0033 M}}\)?
A study of the rate of dimerization of \({{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{6}}}\) gave the data shown in:
\({\bf{2}}{{\bf{C}}_{\bf{4}}}{{\bf{H}}_{\bf{6}}} \to {{\bf{C}}_{\bf{8}}}{{\bf{H}}_{{\bf{12}}}}\)

(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).
Nitrogen monoxide reacts with chlorine according to the equation:
2NO(g) + Cl\({}_2\)(g)⟶ 2NOCl(g) The following initial rates of reaction have been observed for certain reactant concentrations:
What is the rate law that describes the rate’s dependence on the concentrations of NO and Cl2? What is the rate constant? What are the orders with respect to each reactant?
