Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. lalue UnitsExplanation / Answer
From the kinetics data given,
Part B) rate constant k = rate/[A]^2.[B]
= 6 x 10^-3/(0.1)^2.(0.12) = 5 M^-2.s^-1
Part C) Initial rate when concentration of [A] = [B] = 5 x 10^-2 M
rate = 5 x (5 x 10^-2)^3 = 6.25 x 10^-4 M/s
