Hi there! All of the water returns to the atmosphere, it's called evapotranspiration and condenses. And then the water falls back to the Earth's surface and starts the cycle all over again. If you don't know what I mean, it's the Water Cycle.
We can express the rate equation in this form:
-r = k A^n B^m
where -r is the rate
k is the rate constant,
A is the concentration of CH3Cl
n is the order with respect to CH3Cl
B is the concentration of H2O
m is the order with respect to H2O
We can solve this by trial and error or by calculus. The first method is easier. The rate constant does not depend on the concentration of the reactant. Assume values of n and m and solve for k in each experiment. The only option that gives really close values of k in each experiment is:
