Answer:

B. First order, Order with respect to C = 1

Explanation:

The given kinetic data is as follows:

A + B + C → Products

     [A]₀     [B]₀    [C]₀       Initial Rate (10⁻³ M/s)

1.   0.4      0.4     0.2       160

2.  0.2      0.4      0.4       80

3.   0.6     0.1       0.2       15

4.   0.2     0.1       0.2        5

5.   0.2     0.2      0.4       20

The rate of the above reaction is given as:

Rate = k[A]^{x}[B]^{y}[C]^{z}

where x, y and z are the order with respect to A, B and C respectively.

k = rate constant

[A], [B], [C] are the concentrations

In the method of initial rates, the given reaction is run multiple times. The order with respect to a particular reactant is deduced by keeping the concentrations of the remaining reactants constant and measuring the rates. The ratio of the rates from the two runs gives the order relative to that reactant.

Order w.r.t A : Use trials 3 and 4

\frac{Rate3}{Rate4}= [\frac{[A(3)]}{[A(4)]}]^{x}

\frac{15}{5}= [\frac{[0.6]}{[0.2]}]^{x}

3 = 3^{x} \\\\x =1

Order w.r.t B : Use trials 2 and 5

\frac{Rate2}{Rate5}= [\frac{[B(2)]}{[B(5)]}]^{y}

\frac{80}{20}= [\frac{[0.4]}{[0.2]}]^{y}

4 = 2^{y} \\\\y =2

Order w.r.t C : Use trials 1 and 2

\frac{Rate1}{Rate2}= [\frac{[A(1)]}{[A(2)]}]^{x}[\frac{[B(1)]}{[B(2)]}]^{y}[\frac{[C(1)]}{[C(2)]}]^{z}

we know that x = 1 and y = 2, substituting the appropriate values in the above equation gives:

\frac{160}{80}= [\frac{[0.4]}{[0.2]}]^{1}[\frac{[0.4]}{[0.4]}]^{2}[\frac{[0.2]}{[0.4]}]^{z}

1 = (0.5)^{z}

z = 1

Therefore, order w.r.t C = 1

) How many moles are there in 2.00 x 10^19 molecules of calcium phosphate?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

\huge 3.322 \times  {10}^{ - 5}  \:  \: moles  \\

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{2.00 \times  {10}^{19} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  \\  = 3.322 \times  {10}^{ - 5}  \:  \: moles

Hope this helps you
