Answer:
a. Rate = k×[A]
b. k = 0.213s⁻¹
Explanation:
a. When you are studying the kinetics of a reaction such as:
A + B → Products.
General rate law must be like:
Rate = k×[A]ᵃ[B]ᵇ
You must make experiments change initial concentrations of A and B trying to find k, a and b parameters.
If you see experiments 1 and 3, concentration of A is doubled and the Rate of the reaction is doubled to. That means a = 1
Rate = k×[A]¹[B]ᵇ
In experiment 1 and to the concentration of B change from 1.50M to 2.50M but rate maintains the same. That is only possible if b = 0. (The kinetics of the reaction is indepent to [B]
Rate = k×[A][B]⁰
<h3>Rate = k×[A]</h3>
b. Replacing with values of experiment 1 (You can do the same with experiment 3 obtaining the same) k is:
Rate = k×[A]
0.320M/s = k×[1.50M]
<h3>k = 0.213s⁻¹</h3>
It's because of Avagadro's number.
- It is known as Avagadro's constant too.
- It states that at constant temperature one mole of any substance contain same number of atoms i.e n no of atoms
where
2.43 kilograms is equal to 2430 grams because 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams.
