Answer :  The value of the rate constant 'k' for this reaction is 2.67\times 10^{2}M^{-2}s^{-1}

Explanation :

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

2A+B\rightarrow C

Rate law expression for the reaction:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

Expression for rate law for first observation:

2.13\times 10^{-4}=k(0.100)^a(0.0500)^b ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

1.70\times 10^{-2}=k(0.200)^a(0.0500)^b ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third observation:

1.36\times 10^{-1}=k(0.400)^a(0.100)^b ....(3)

Dividing 2 by 1, we get:

\frac{1.70\times 10^{-2}}{2.13\times 10^{-4}}=\frac{k(0.200)^a(0.0500)^b}{k(0.100)^a(0.0500)^b}\\\\80=2^a\\\\\log 80=a\times \log 2\\\\a=6

Dividing 3 by 2 and put value of a = 6, we get:

\frac{1.36\times 10^{-1}}{1.70\times 10^{-2}}=\frac{k(0.400)^6(0.100)^b}{k(0.200)^6(0.0500)^b}\\\\8=2^{(b+6)}\\\\b+6=3\\\\b=-3

Thus, the rate law becomes:

\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b

\text{Rate}=k[A]^6[B]^{-3}

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

2.13\times 10^{-4}=k(0.100)^6(0.0500)^{-3}

k=2.67\times 10^{2}M^{-2}s^{-1}

Hence, the value of the rate constant 'k' for this reaction is 2.67\times 10^{2}M^{-2}s^{-1}

Svetradugi [14.3K]
Your question looks a bit incomplete as you have the same contents in options a) and d). According to your list, I can't see the correct answer, but I can give you one.The difference between the potential energy of the products of the potential energy of the reactants is equal to the enthalpy of the reaction.

Which statement identifies the element arsenic?
insens350 [35]

Answer : Option A) Atomic number of Arsenic is 33.


Explanation : Arsenic contains same number of protons in its atomic nucleus. In arsenic there are 33 protons found in the atomic nucleus. Hence, the atomic number will be 33. It has 5 valence electrons in its outermost shell, which is also called as valence shell. So, its valency becomes 5.
