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 can you differentiate the Atomic Structure and the Bohr Model? In other words, how is the Atomic Structure different from th
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in circular paths; whereas in the modern view atomic electron structure is more like 3D standing waves. Bohr built upon Rutherford's model of the atom. ... He believed that electrons moved around the nucleus in circular orbits with quantised potential and kinetic energies.
