Concept introduction:
The rate law for a reaction,
Where, [A] is the concentration of reactant A, k is the specific rate constant and exponent m is the order of the reactant.
Answer to Problem 102A
The instantaneous rate of reaction when the concentration of phenolphthalein is 0.0025 M is
Explanation of Solution
We consider table 16.6 to know the value of concentration of phenolphthalein with time.
Concentration of phenolphthalein (M) | Time (s) |
0.0050 | 0.0 |
0.0040 | 22.3 |
0.0020 | 91.6 |
0.0010 | 160.9 |
0.00050 | 230.3 |
0.00015 | 350.7 |
The given rate law is
Using this value, we calculate the rate of the reaction.
The rate of the reaction is
