Answer:
25.35%
Explanation:
Again let me restate the the equation of the reaction;
H2O (ℓ) + 2 MnO4 - (aq) + 3 CN- (aq) → 2 MnO2 (s) + 3 CNO- (aq) + 2 OH- (aq)
Amount of potassium permanganate reacted = 10.2/1000 * 0.08035 = 8.1957 * 10^-4 moles
If 2 moles of MnO4 - reacts with 3 moles of CN-
8.1957 * 10^-4 moles of MnO4 - reacts with 8.1957 * 10^-4 * 3/2
= 1.229 * 10^-3 moles of CN-
Mass of CN- reacted = 1.229 * 10^-3 moles of CN- * 26.02 g/mol
= 0.03 g
Hence, percentage of the cyanide = 0.03 g/0.1183 g * 100
= 25.35%
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Rate law, at a given temperature:</u>
- Since all the data are obtained at the same temperature, the equilibrium constant is the same.
- Since only reactants A and B participate in the reaction, you assume that the form of the rate law is:
r = K [A]ᵃ [B]ᵇ
<u>2) Use the data from the table</u>
- Since the first and second set of data have the same concentration of the reactant A, you can use them to find the exponent b:
r₁ = (1.50)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s
r₂ = (1.50)ᵃ (2.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s
Divide r₂ by r₁: [ 2.50 / 1.50] ᵇ = 1 ⇒ b = 0
- Use the first and second set of data to find the exponent a:
r₁ = (1.50)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s
r₃ = (3.00)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 5.00 × 10⁻¹ M/s
Divide r₃ by r₂: [3.00 / 1.50]ᵃ = [5.00 / 2.50]
2ᵃ = 2 ⇒ a = 1
<u>3) Write the rate law</u>
This means, that the rate is independent of reactant B and is of first order respect reactant A.
<u>4) Use any set of data to find K</u>
With the first set of data
- r = K (1.50 M) = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s ⇒ K = 0.250 M/s / 1.50 M = 0.167 s⁻¹
Result: the rate constant is K = 0.167 s⁻¹
