Question
9. The dimerization of cyclopentadiene (CSH6) occurs in a simple one-step elementary process as shown below:
2 C3H6
C10H12
The concentration of C5H6 was followed over time and the results are given in the following table:
Time (s)
[CSH6] (M)
0.100 M
100
0.049 M
150
0.041 M
200
0.033 М
250
0.029 M
a) What is the average reaction rate between 150 s and 200 s?
b) What is the rate law for this reaction?
c) What is the rate constant for this reaction?
10. Answer the following questions by starting whether they are true or false statements.
a) If a proposed mechanism fits the experimental rate law and reaction stoichiometry, then the mechanism is
known to be completely correct.
b) The activation energy for a reaction is the difference in potential energy between the reactants and the
activated complex (transition state).
c) Having three molecules participating in an elementary reaction is highly unlikely.
d) In the Arrhenius equation, the "A" term describes the fraction of molecules that have enough kinetic energy
to exceed the activation energy barrier for a reaction.
11. Catalase is an important enzyme that breaks down its substrate, H2O2, into water and oxygen in nearly all
living cells. The enzyme has k2 = 1.1*107 sec1 and Km = 2.0 mM. An experiment was set up under the
conditions when the reaction rate is independent of [H2O2]. In this experiment, at what concentration of
catalase (use SI units and scientific notation) will the reaction have a rate of 850 mM/min?
