Answer:
4. Rate = (1.2 × 1010) [A]2 [B2] [C]
Explanation:
A + B2 + 2 C → D
Initial Initial Initial Initial [A] [B2] [C] rate M M M M/s
1 0.01 0.01 0.10 1.20 × 103
2 0.02 0.01 0.10 4.80 × 103
3 0.03 0.01 0.20 2.16 × 104
4 0.04 0.02 0.10 3.84 × 104
Comparing experiment 1 and 2, when the concentration of a Is doubled, the rate increases by a factor of 4. This means the rate is second order with respect to A.
This reduces the options to;
3. Rate = (1.2 × 1011) [A]2 [B2] 2
4. Rate = (1.2 × 1010) [A]2 [B2] [C]
6. Rate = (1.2 × 1012) [A]2 [B2] [C]
From experiment 1, 2 , 3 and 4. Doubling the concentration of B increases the rate of equation by a factor of 2. This means the reaction is first order with respect to B.
This reduces the options to;
4. Rate = (1.2 × 1010) [A]2 [B2] [C]
6. Rate = (1.2 × 1012) [A]2 [B2] [C]
From the above options, we can conclude that the reaction is first order with respect to C.
Rate law is given as;
Rate = k [A]2 [B2] [C]
From experiment 1;
1.20 × 103 = k (0.01)^2 (0.01) (0.1)
k = 1.20 × 103 / (1e-7)
k = 1.20 × 10^10
Hence, answer:
4. Rate = (1.2 × 1010) [A]2 [B2] [C]
