The percentage of I2 converted = 78.6 %

Explanation:

Write down the given values

Kp= 54.4

The percentage of I2 will be converted to HI is 0.200 moled each of H2 and I2.

It should come to an equilibrium in 1.00 lit container .

Change in I2 (iodine) and H2 (hydrogen) = x in each

Change in HI = 2x

total ni (nickel)

number of moles = 0.2 -x + 0.2 -x + 2x

=0.4 moles

Mole fractions :

I2 = 0.2-x / 0.4 H2

=0.2-x / 0.4 HI

= 2x /0.4

Kp = HI ^2 / H2* I2

= (2x) ^2 / (0.2-x) ^2 = 54.4

by taking square root:

2x / 0.2-x = 7.375

= x=0.157

percentage of I2 converted = 78.6 %

The iodide ion reacts with hypochlorite ion (the active ingredient in chlorine bleaches) in the following way:

LiRa [457]

Explanation:

(a) As the given chemical reaction equation is as follows.

$OCl^{-} + I^{-} \rightarrow OI^{-1} + Cl^{-1}$

So, when we double the amount of hypochlorite or iodine then the rate of the reaction will also get double. And, this reaction is "first order" with respect to hypochlorite and iodine.

Hence, equation for rate law of reaction will be as follows.

Rate = $K \times [OCl^{-}] \times [l^{-}]$

(b) Since, the rate equation is as follows.

Rate = $K [OCl^{-}][l^{-}]$

Let us assume that ( $[OCl^{-}] = [l^{-}]$ )

Putting the given values into the above equation as follows.

$1.36 \times 10^{-4} = K \times (1.5 \times 10^{-3})^2$

$1.36 \times 10^{-4} = K \times (2.25 \times 10^{-6})$

K = $\frac{1.36 \times 10^{-4}}{2.25 \times 10^{-6}}$

= $60.4 M^{-1}sec^{-1}$

Hence, the value of rate constant for the given reaction is $60.4 M^{-1}sec^{-1}$ .

(c) Now, we will calculate the rate as follows.

Rate = $K [OCl^{-}][l^{-}]$

= $60.4 \times (1.8 \times 10^{3}) \times (6.0 \times 10^{4})$

= $6.52 \times 10^{5}$

Therefore, rate when $[OCl^{-}] = 1.8 \times 10^{3}$ M and $[I^{-}]= 6.0 \times 10^{4}$ M is $6.52 \times 10^{5}$ .
