Determine the rate law, including the values of the orders and rate law constant, for the following reaction using the experimen

olga55 [171]

Answer: Rate law= $k[A]^1[B]^2$ , order with respect to A is 1, order with respect to B is 2 and total order is 3. Rate law constant is $3L^2mol^{-2}s^{-1}$

Explanation: Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$Rate=k[A]^x[B]^y$

k= rate constant

x = order with respect to A

y = order with respect to A

n = x+y = Total order

a) From trial 1: $1.2\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^x[0.20]^y$ (1)

From trial 2: $4.8\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y$ (2)

Dividing 2 by 1 : $\frac{4.8\times 10^{-2}}{1.2\times 10^{-2}}=\frac{k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y}{k[0.10]^x[0.20]^y}$

$4=2^y,2^2=2^y$ therefore y=2.

b) From trial 2: $4.8\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y$ (3)

From trial 3: $9.6\times 10^{-2}=k[0.20]^x[0.40]^y$ (4)

Dividing 4 by 3: $\frac{9.6\times 10^{-2}}{4.8\times 10^{-2}}=\frac{k[0.20]^x[0.40]^y}{k[0.10]^x[0.40]^y}$

$2=2^x,2=2^1$ , x=1

Thus rate law is $Rate=k[A]^1[B]^2$

Thus order with respect to A is 1 , order with respect to B is 2 and total order is 1+2=3.

c) For calculating k:

Using trial 1: $1.2\times 10^{-2}=k[0.10]^1[0.20]^2$

$k=3 L^2mol^{-2}s^{-1}$ .

This is the balanced reaction equation for the combustion of methane.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Mass basically states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. As such, we must be able to show this in our chemical reaction equations.

If you look at the equation above, you'll see an arrow that separates the reaction equation into two parts. This represents the direction of the reaction.

To the left of the arrow, we have our reactants.

To the right of the arrow, we have our products.

The quantity of each individual element in the left must equal the quantity of each individual element in the right.

So if you look below, you'll see the unbalanced equation, and I'll try to explain how to balance the reaction.

Our reactants in this equation are

C

H

4

and

O

2

.

Our next step is to break these down into individual atoms.

We have:

1 C atom, 4 H atoms & 2 O atoms.

If you're confused by this, look to see the little number to the bottom right of each element, the subscript, and it tells you how many of each atom are in the molecule. Make sense?

Now we look to the other side of the equation.

Here we see our products are

C

O

2

+

H

2

O

Again, we break these down into individual atoms again.

We have:

1 C atom, 2 H atom, 3 O atom

timama [110]

Answer:

The advantage of the compound light microscope over the dissecting microscope is the magnification power of the telescope. Compound light microscope magnifies from 40x up to 1,000x while dissecting microscope magnifies up to 40 x only. In this regard, more magnification power is advantageous to view smaller objects.
