(a) Consider the combustion of hydrogen, 2 H21g2 + O21g2 ¡ 2 H2O1g2. If hydrogen is burning at the rate of 0.48 mol>s, what is the rate of consumption of oxygen? What is the rate of formation of water vapor?
(b) The reaction 2 NO1g2 + Cl21g2¡2 NOCl1g2 is carried out in a closed vessel. If the partial pressure of NO is decreasing at the rate of 56 torr/min, what is the rate of change of the total pressure of the vessel?
A reaction A + B¡C obeys the following rate law: Rate = k3B42. (a) If [A] is doubled, how will the rate change? Will the rate constant change?
Consider a hypothetical reaction between A, B, and C that is first order in A, zero order in B, and second order in C. (a) Write the rate law for the reaction.
Consider a hypothetical reaction between A, B, and C that is first order in A, zero order in B, and second order in C. (e) By what factor does the rate change when the concentrations of all three reactants are tripled?
The decomposition reaction of N2O5 in carbon tetrachloride is 2 N2O5¡4 NO2 + O2. The rate law is first order in N2O5. At 64 C the rate constant is 4.82 * 10-3 s-1. (a) Write the rate law for the reaction.
