Answer:

The rate of the over all reaction is ;

R=K[A_2]^{1/2}[B]

Explanation:

Step 1 : A_2\rightleftharpoons 2 A fast

Step 2  : A + B\rightarrow AB slow

Equilibrium constant of the reaction in step 1:

K_1=\frac{[A]^2}{[A_2]}....[1]

Overall reaction:

A_2 + 2 B \rightarrow 2 AB

When there is a chemical reaction which taking place in more than 1 step than the rate of the over all reaction is determined by the slowest step occurring during that process;

Here step 2 is slow step, so the rate of the reaction will be;

R=k[A][B]..[2]

Putting value of [A] from [1] in [2]:

R=k\times \sqrt{K_1\times [A_2]}\times [B]

K=k\times (K_1)^{1/2}

K = rate constant of the reaction

The rate of the over all reaction is ;

R=K[A_2]^{1/2}[B]

For the following reactions, write a balanced equation using half-reactions and calculate the voltage to be expected.
Iteru [2.4K]

a) 2Na(s) +2H_2O(I)→ 2Na^+(aq) + OH^-(aq)+ H_2(g)

b) 2Ag (s) +2H^(aq) → 2 Ag^+ (aq) +H_2(g)

<h3>What are half-reactions?</h3>

The half-reaction method is a way to balance redox reactions. It involves breaking the overall equation down into an oxidation part and a reduction part.

a)

2Na(s) +2H_2O(I)→ 2Na^+(aq) + OH^-(aq)+ H_2(g)

E^0 cell = E^0 (reduction)  - E^0 (oxidation)

= E^0(\frac{H_2O}{H_2}, OH^-) -E^0(Na^+/Na)

= -0.83 - (-2.71) =1.88V

b)

2Ag (s) +2H^(aq) → 2 Ag^+ (aq) +H_2(g)

E^0cell= E^0(H^+/H_2) -E^0(Ag^+/Ag)

E^0cell=-0. - (0.8) =-0.8V
