Can a reaction mechanism ever be proven correct? Can it be proven incorrect?
Why does a catalyst increase the rate of a reaction? What is the difference between a homogeneous catalyst and a heterogeneous catalyst? Would a given reaction necessarily have the same rate law for both a catalyzed and an uncatalyzed pathway? Explain.
The type of rate law for a reaction, either the differential rate law or the integrated rate law, is usually determined by which data is easiest to collect. Explain.
Use the data provided in a graphical method to determine the order and rate constant of the following reaction: 2PQ+W Time (s) 9.0 13.0 18.0 22.0 25.0 [P] (M) 1.077103 1.068103 1.055103 1.046103 1.039103
A study of the rate of dimerization of C4H6 gave the data shown in the table: 2C4H6C8H12 (a) Determine the average rate of dimerization between 0 s and 1600 s, and between 1600 s and 3200 s. (b) Estimate the instantaneous rate of dimerization at 3200 s from a graph of time versus [C4H6]. What are the units of this rate? (c) Determine the average rate of formation of C8H12 at 1600 s and the instantaneous rate of formation at 3200 s from the rates found in parts (a) and (b).
Kinetics II You and a friend are working together in order to obtain as much kinetic information as possible about the reaction A(g)B(g)+C(g). One thing you know before performing the experiments is that the reaction is zero order, first order, or second order with respect to A. Your friend goes off, runs the experiment, and brings back the following graph. a After studying the curve of the graph, she declares that the reaction is second order, with a corresponding rate law of Rate = k[A]2. Judging solely on the basis of the information presented in this plot, is she correct in her statement that the reaction must be second order? Here are some data collected from her experiment: Time (s) [A] 0.0 1.0 1.0 0.14 3.0 2.5 103 5.0 4.5 105 7.0 8.3 107 b The half-life of the reaction is 0.35 s. Do these data support the reaction being second order, or is it something else? Try to reach a conclusive answer without graphing the data. c What is the rate constant for the reaction? d The mechanism for this reaction is found to be a two-step process, with intermediates X and Y. The first step of the reaction is the rate-determining step. Write a possible mechanism for the reaction. e You perform additional experiments and find that the rate constant doubles in value when you increase the temperature by 10oC. Your lab partner doesnt understand why the rate constant changes in this manner. What could you say to your partner to help her understand? Feel free to use figures and pictures as part of your explanation.
