Rate law for the given 2nd order reaction is:
Rate = k[a]2
Given data:
rate constant k = 0.150 m-1s-1
initial concentration, [a] = 0.250 M
reaction time, t = 5.00 min = 5.00 min * 60 s/s = 300 s
To determine:
Concentration at time t = 300 s i.e.
Calculations:
The second order rate equation is:
substituting for k,t and [a] we get:
1/[a]t = 0.150 M-1s-1 * 300 s + 1/[0.250]M
1/[a]t = 49 M-1
[a]t = 1/49 M-1 = 0.0204 M
Hence the concentration of 'a' after t = 5min is 0.020 M

<u>Question:</u>
For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K
<u>Answer:</u>
The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is
As we know that = 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become
So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.
