Question

For the overall chemical reaction shown below, which one of the following statements can be rightly assumed? 2H_2S (g) + O_2 (g) rightarrow 2S (s) + 2H_2O (l) A) The reaction is third-order overall. B) The reaction is second-order overall. B) The reaction is second-order overall. c) The rate law is, rate = k [H_2 S]^2 [O_2]. D) The rate law is, rate = k [H_2 S] [O_2]. E) The rate law cannot be determined from the information given. For the chemical reaction A rightarrow B + C, a plot of [A]_ (the concentration of A at time t) versus time is found to give a straight line with a negative slope. What is the order of reaction with respect to A? A) zeroth B) first C) second D) Such a plot cannot reveal the order of the reaction. The Arrhenius equation is K = Ae^-E_g/RT. The slope of a plot of lnk vs. 1/T is equal to A) -k B) k C)A D) E_a E) -E_a/R For the reaction BrO_3^- + 5Br^- + 6H^+ rightarrow 3Br_2 + 3H_2O at a particular time, lambda [BrO_3]/lambda t = 6.0 times 10^-4 M/s. What is lambda [Br]/lambda t at the same instant? A) 13 M/s B) 3.0 times 10^-3 M/s C) 7.5 times 10^-2 M/s

Explanation / Answer

1)

We can tell about the rate law or order from the overall reaction. For this elementary reaction must be given

Answer: E

2)

integrated rate law for 2nd order reaction:

1/[A]o = 1/[A] - k*t

integrated rate law for 1st order reaction:

ln [A] = –kt + ln [A]o

integrated rate law for zero order reaction:

[A] = [A]o – k*t

[A] vs t is straight line for 0 order reaction
