Answer:

2

0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

Explanation:

Half-life

{t_{1/2}}A=2\ \text{min}

{t_{1/2}}B=4\ \text{min}

Concentration

{[A]_0}_A=1.2\ \text{M}

{[A]_0}_B=0.6\ \text{M}

We have the relation

t_{1/2}\propto \dfrac{1}{[A]_0^{n-1}}

So

\dfrac{{t_{1/2}}_A}{{t_{1/2}}_B}=\left(\dfrac{{[A]_0}_B}{{[A]_0}_A}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{4}=\left(\dfrac{0.6}{1.2}\right)^{n-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}

Comparing the exponents we get

1=n-1\\\Rightarrow n=2

The order of the reaction is 2.

t_{1/2}=\dfrac{1}{k[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{t_{1/2}[A]_0^{n-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2\times 1.2^{2-1}}\\\Rightarrow k=0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

The rate constant is 0.4167\ \text{M}^{-1}\text{min}^{-1}

The lab procedure mentions that not all of the oxone may dissolve after being added to the water because the water may be satura
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The answer is (C) There are more solute molecules than water molecules.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute can be dissolved or disintegrated into the solvent. When or if the ozone  stops being dissolved in the water, it implies that the water has already taken on more ozone molecules than it can contain, meaning there are more solute molecules (ozone molecules) than there are solvent molecules (water molecules).
