Chapter 14, Problem 14.54QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The rate law for the reaction is to be predicted according to the given conditions.

Concept introduction: Rate law of a chemical reaction describes the relationship between concentrations of reactants and the rate of that particular reaction.

To determine: The rate law for the reaction if rate doubles when $\left[\text{NO}\right]$ is doubled and $\left[{\text{Br}}_{\text{2}}\right]$ remains constant.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The rate law for the reaction is to be predicted according to the given conditions.

Concept introduction: Rate law of a chemical reaction describes the relationship between concentrations of reactants and the rate of that particular reaction.

To determine: The rate law for the reaction if rate doubles when $\left[{\text{Br}}_{\text{2}}\right]$ is doubled and $\left[\text{NO}\right]$ remains constant.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The rate law for the reaction is to be predicted according to the given conditions.

Concept introduction: Rate law of a chemical reaction describes the relationship between concentrations of reactants and the rate of that particular reaction.

To determine: The rate law for the reaction if rate increases by $1.56$ times when $\left[\text{NO}\right]$ is increased $1.25$ times and $\left[{\text{Br}}_{\text{2}}\right]$ remains constant.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The rate law for the reaction is to be predicted according to the given conditions.

Concept introduction: Rate law of a chemical reaction describes the relationship between concentrations of reactants and the rate of that particular reaction.

To determine: The rate law for the reaction if rate is halved when $\left[\text{NO}\right]$ is doubled and $\left[{\text{Br}}_{\text{2}}\right]$ remains constant.
