I just need to know the answer for six please and thank you!

In their notebook you see that it takes 9 hours for a sixth of a 0.5M solution of BC2 to react. Unfortunately, you have somewher

Answer:

The concentration of $BC_2$ that should used originally is $C_Z_o = 0.4492M$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The necessary elementary step is

$2BC_2 ----->4C + B_2$

The time taken for sixth of 0.5 M of reactant to react $t = 9 hr$

The time available is $t_a = 3.5 hr$

The desired concentration to remain $C = 0.42M$

Let Z be the reactant , Y be the first product and X the second product

Generally the elementary rate law is mathematically as

$-r_Z = kC_Z^2 = - \frac{d C_Z}{dt}$

Where k is the rate constant , $C_Z$ is the concentration of Z

From the elementary rate law we see that the reaction is second order (This because the concentration of the reactant is raised to power 2 )

For second order reaction

$\frac{1}{C_Z} - \frac{1}{C_Z_o} = kt$

Where $C_Z_o$ is the initial concentration of Z which a value of $C_Z_o = 0.5M$

From the question we are told that it take 9 hours for the concentration of the reactant to become

$C_Z = C_Z_o - \frac{1}{6} C_Z_o$

$C_Z = 0.5 - \frac{0.5}{6}$

$= 0.4167 M$

So

$\frac{1}{0.4167} - \frac{1}{0.50} = 9 k$

$0.400 = 9 k$

=> $k = 0.044\ L/ mol \cdot hr^{-1}$

For $C_Z = 0.42M$

$\frac{1}{0.42} - \frac{1}{C_Z_o} = 3.5 * 0.044$

$2.38 - 0.154 = \frac{1}{C_Z_o}$

$2.226 = \frac{1}{C_Z_o}$

$C_Z_o = \frac{1}{2.226}$

$C_Z_o = 0.4492M$

The following mechanism has been suggested for the reaction between nitrogen monoxide and oxygen: NO(g) + NO(g) → N2O2(g) (fast)

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

b. Second order in NO and first order in O₂.

Explanation:

A. The mechanism

$\rm 2NO\xrightarrow[k_{-1}]{k_{1}}N_{2}O_{2} \, (fast)\\\rm N_{2}O_{2} + O_{2}\xrightarrow{k_{2}} 2NO_{2} \, (slow)$

B. The rate expressions

$-\dfrac{\text{d[NO]} }{\text{d}t} = k_{1}[\text{NO]}^{2} - k_{-1} [\text{N}_{2}\text{O}_{2}]^{2}\\\\\rm -\dfrac{\text{d[N$_{2}$O$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t} = -\dfrac{\text{d[O$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t} = k_{2}[ N_{2}O_{2}][O_{2}] - k_{1} [NO]^{2}\\\\\dfrac{\text{d[NO$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t}= k_{2}[ N_{2}O_{2}][O_{2}]$

The last expression is the rate law for the slow step. However, it contains the intermediate N₂O₂, so it can't be the final answer.

C. Assume the first step is an equilibrium

If the first step is an equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. The equilibrium is only slightly perturbed by the slow leaking away of N₂O₂ to form product.

$\rm k_{1}[NO]^{2} = k_{-1} [N_{2}O_{2}]\\\\\rm [N_{2}O_{2}] = \dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{-1}}[NO]^{2}$

D. Substitute this concentration into the rate law

$\rm \dfrac{\text{d[NO$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t}= \dfrac{k_{2}k_{1}}{k_{-1}}[NO]^{2} [O_{2}] = k[NO]^{2} [O_{2}]$

The reaction is second order in NO and first order in O₂.
