What are some common mistakes students make with decomposition reactions?

1 answer:

6 0

A decomposition usually is simple and straight forward but many students just don't know which elements should be diatomic and which shouldn't.

A series of experiments investigating the reaction of (CH3)3CCl with H2O to create (CH3)3OH produces a plot of Ln[(CH3)3CCl] vs.

Helga [31]

Explanation:

There will occur a straight line for the curve of Ln[(CH_{3})_{3}CCl] Vs. time. Since, it is a first order reaction therefore, the formula of its half-life will be as follows.

Half-life = $\frac{ln 2}{k}$
