Question


                                                Consider the reaction:
                                               Cl2(g)+3F2(g)?2ClF3(g)
                                                ?[Cl2]/?t = -0.023M/s .

PART A:

Find ?[F2]/?t

(Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units)


PART B:

Find ?[CIF3]/?t

(Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units)


PART C:

Find the rate of the reaction.

(Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units)

Explanation / Answer


Cl2(g) + 3 F2(g) => 2 ClF3(g)

d[Cl2]/dt = -0.023 M/s


(A) d[F2]/dt = 3 x d[Cl2]/dt

= 3 x (-0.023)

= -0.069 M/s


(B) d[ClF3]/dt = -2 x d[Cl2]/dt

= -2 x (-0.023)

= 0.046 M/s


(C) Rate of reaction = -d[Cl2]/dt

= -(-0.023)

= 0.023 M/s
