Answer: (a) K *[A][B]^2
(b) The answer is B
Explanation:
A)
Step1:A+B<--> C (fast)
Step2: B+C→D(slow)
Rate depends on slowest step.
so,
rate = k' [B][C] ...eqn 1
But C is intermediate.so use step 1
Since 1st step is an equilibrium,
Kc = [C] /[A][B]
so,
[C] = Kc [A][B] ...eqn 2
put eqn 2 in eqn 1
rate = k' *[B] * Kc [A][B]
= k'Kc*[A][B]^2
= K *[A][B]^2 {writing k'Kc = K}
Answer: K *[A][B]^2
B)
Answer is B
Since rate depends on slowest step.
if slowest step is:
X2Y2+Z2→X2Y2Z+Z
then only,
rate= k[X2Y2][Z2]
Answer: B
P1 * V1 ÷ T1 = P2 * V2 ÷ T2
45 * 1.20 ÷ 314 = 96 * V2 ÷ 420
30,144 * V2 = 22,680
V2 = 22,680 ÷ 30,144
The new volume is approximately 0.75 liter.
