- 1. If the PE of the reactants is 430kJ and the PE of the products is 190kJ. What is the ΔH? ... 2. If the PE of the reactants is 430kJ and the activation energy is 220, how much TOTAL energy will be needed to be added for the reaction to proceed?arrow_forwardConsider the following reaction: (a) The rate law for this reaction is first order in HBr(g) and first order in O₂(g). What is the rate law for this reaction? Rate = k [HBr(g)] [O₂(g)] O Rate = k [HBr(g)]² [O₂(g)] O Rate = k [HBr(g)] [O₂(g)]² O Rate = k [HBr(g)]² [0₂(g)]² O Rate = k [HBr(g)] [O₂(g)]³ O Rate = k [HBr(g)]4 [0₂(g)] (b) If the rate constant for this reaction at a certain temperature is 11500, what is the reaction rate when [HBr(g)] = 0.00379 M and [O₂(g)] = 0.00876 M? Rate = 4 HBr(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g) + 2 Br₂(g) M/s. Rate = (c) What is the reaction rate when the concentration of HBr(g) is doubled, to 0.00758 M while the concentration of O₂(g) is 0.00876 M? M/Sarrow_forward4. A) The enzyme urease catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea to ammonia and carbon dioxide. The uncatalyzed reaction has an activation energy of 125 kJ/mol. The enzyme catalyzes a mechanism that has an activation energy of 46 kJ/mol. By what factor does urease increase the rate of urea hydrolysis at 21 celsius? B) True or False: A catalyst increases the rate of a reaction by changing the mechanism of the reaction such that there is a different rate law for the reaction when a catalyst is present. C) True or False: A catalyst increases the equilibrium constant of a reaction and therefore makes the products more favored. D) True or False: In order for a catalyst to function it must exist in the same phase as the substrate.arrow_forward
