In the diagram, the black line represents the concentration of a reactant and the green line represents the concentration of a p

roduct.
Which statement best describes the reaction rate?



A. The product maintains an constant concentration in the first half of the reaction.


B. At the end of the reaction, both product and reactants are of a constant concentration.


C. The reactants maintain an constant concentration in the first half of the reaction.


D. At the end of the reaction, both product and reactants are of an equal concentration.

I think is A. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you!

Answer:

B. <u><em>At the end of the reaction, both product and reactants are of a constant concentration.</em></u>

Explanation:

  • Option A and C are similar as they both refer to constant concentration of product and reactant respectively in first half. As in the graph, the concentration of reactant and product changes (concentration of reactant decreases and concentration of product increase) with time in the <em>first half</em>^{*} of the reaction. This made both A and C option wrong.
  • Option D is also wrong as at the <em>end of reaction</em>^{**} the line of concentration of product and reactant do not coincide which means they are not equal.
  • Option B is correct as we take the end of reaction at the point where the concentration of reactant and product won't change much or become constant

^{*}<u><em>first half</em></u> time is the when concentration of reactant reduces to 50% of initial concentration which you can nearly assume on or before the point of intersection of both the concentration graphs.

^{**}<u><em>end of reaction</em></u><em> </em>is the time when the reaction completes which is theoretically infinite but generally we take end of the reaction as the time when the slope of concentration curve becomes nearly zero or the time when change in concentration of reactant and product is negligible.

A 256 mL sample of HCl gas is in a flask where it exerts a force (pressure) of 67.5 mmHg. What is the pressure of the gas if it
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The pressure in the new flask would be 128\; \rm mmHg if the \rm HCl here acts like an ideal gas.  

Explanation:

Assume that the \rm HCl sample here acts like an ideal gas. By Boyle's Law, the pressure P of the gas should be inversely proportional to its volume V.

For example, let the initial volume and pressure of the sample be V_1 and P_1. The new volume V_2 and pressure P_2 of this sample shall satisfy the equation: P_1 \cdot V_1 =P_2 \cdot V_2.

In this question,

  • The initial volume of the gas is V_1= 256\; \rm mL.
  • The initial pressure of the gas is P_1 = 67.5\; \rm mmHg.
  • The new volume of the gas is V_2 = 135\; \rm mL.

The goal is to find the new pressure of this gas, P_2.

Assume that this sample is indeed an ideal gas. Then the equation P_1 \cdot V_1 =P_2 \cdot V_2 should still hold. Rearrange the equation to separate the unknown, P_2. Note: make sure that the units for V_1 and V_2 are the same before evaluating. That way, the unit of

\begin{aligned} & P_2\\ &= \frac{P_1 \cdot V_1}{V_2} \\ &= \frac{256\; \rm mL \times 67.5\; \rm mmHg}{135\; \rm mL} \\ & \approx 128\; \rm mmHg\end{aligned}.
