The air oxidation of nitric oxide is one of the reactions that contributes to the formation of acid rain: `2NO(g)+O_(2)(g)rarr 2NO_(2)(g)` Some initial rate data are collected Two overall order of the reaction isA. twoB. threeC. oneD. zero |
Answer» Correct Answer - B Note that pairs of experiments are designed to invertigate the effect on the intial rate of a change in the intial concentration of a single reactant. In the first two experments, the concentration of `NO` is doubled from `0.015M` to `0.03M` while the concentration of `O_(2)` is held constant. The intial rate increases by a factor of `4` , from `0.048Ms^(-1)` to `0.192Ms^(-1)` , indicating that the rate depends on the concentration of `NO` squared, `[NO]^(-2)` . When `[NO]` is held constant and `[O_(2)]` is doubled (experiments `1` and `3`), the intial rate doubles from `0.048Ms^(-1)` to `0.096Ms^(-1)` , indicating that the rate depends on the rate concentration of `O_(2)` to the first power, `[O_(2)]^(1)` . Therefore, the rate law for formation of `NO_(2)` is Rate `=(d[NO_(2)])/(dt)=K[NO]^(2)[O_(2)]` The overall reaction order s three. In accord with this rate law, which is second order in `NO` , first order in `O_(2)` , and third order overall, the intial rate increases by a factor of `8` when the concentratiobn of both `NO` and `O_(2)` are doubled (experiments `1` and `4`). |

The reaction `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-) + 3I^(ɵ) rarr 2SO_(4)^(2-) + I_(3)^(ɵ)` is of first order both with respect to persulphate and iofide ions. Taking the initial concentration as `a` and `b`, respectively, and taking `x` as the concentration of the triofide at time `t`, a differential rate equation can be written. Two suggested mechanism for the reaction are: I. `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-)+I^(ɵ) hArr SO_(4)I^(ɵ)+SO_(4)^(2-) ("fast")` `I^(ɵ)+SO_(4)I^(ɵ) overset(k_(1))rarrI_(2) + SO_(4)^(2-)` (show) `I^(ɵ) + I_(2) overset(k_(2))rarr I_(3)^(ɵ) ("fast")` II. `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-) + I^(ɵ) overset(k_(1))rarr S_(2)O_(8) I^(2-) (slow)` `S_(2)O_(8)I^(3-) overset(k_(2))rarr2SO_(4)^(2-)+I^(o+) ("fast")` `I^(o+) + I^(ɵ) overset(k_(3)) rarr I_(2) ("fast")` `I_(2) + I^(o+) overset(k_(4))rarr I_(3)^(ɵ) ("fast")` For the reaction `I_(2)+2S_(2)O_(3)^(2-) rarr S_(4)O_(6)^(2-) + 2I^(ɵ)` I. `(-d[I_(2)])/(dt) = -(1)/(2) (d[S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)])/(dt)` II. `(-d[I_(2)])/(dt) = -2 (d[S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)])/(dt)` III. `(-d[I_(2)])/(dt) = -2 (d[I^(ɵ)])/(dt) xx (d[S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)])/(dt)` IV. `(d[S_(4)O_(6)^(2-)])/(dt) = (1)/(2)(d[I^(ɵ)])/(dt)` The correct option isA. Only IB. I and IVC. II and IVD. Only III |
Answer» Correct Answer - B `I_(2)+2S_(2)O_(3)^(2-) rarr S_(4)O_(6)^(2-) + 2I^(ɵ)` Rate `= (-d[I_(2)])/(dt) = (-d[S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)])/(2dt)` `= (+d[S_(4)O_(6)^(2-)])/(dt) = = (+d[I^(ɵ)])/(2dt)` Hence, correct options are I and IV. |

The reaction `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-) + 3I^(ɵ) rarr 2SO_(4)^(2-) + I_(3)^(ɵ)` is of first order both with respect to persulphate and iofide ions. Taking the initial concentration as `a` and `b`, respectively, and taking `x` as the concentration of the triofide at time `t`, a differential rate equation can be written. Two suggested mechanism for the reaction are: I. `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-)+I^(ɵ) hArr SO_(4)I^(ɵ)+SO_(4)^(2-) ("fast")` `I^(ɵ)+SO_(4)I^(ɵ) overset(k_(1))rarrI_(2) + SO_(4)^(2-)` (show) `I^(ɵ) + I_(2) overset(k_(2))rarr I_(3)^(ɵ) ("fast")` II. `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-) + I^(ɵ) overset(k_(1))rarr S_(2)O_(8) I^(2-) (slow)` `S_(2)O_(8)I^(3-) overset(k_(2))rarr2SO_(4)^(2-)+I^(o+) ("fast")` `I^(o+) + I^(ɵ) overset(k_(3)) rarr I_(2) ("fast")` `I_(2) + I^(o+) overset(k_(4))rarr I_(3)^(ɵ) ("fast")` The general difference equation for the above reaction isA. `(dx)/(dt) = k[a-x][b-3x] (kgt0)`B. `(dx)/(dt) = -k[a-x][b-3x] (kgt0)`C. `(dx)/(dt) = k[a-x][b-x] (kgt0)`D. `(dx)/(dt) = -k[a-x][b-x] (kgt0)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - A `S_(2)O_(8)^(2-) + 3I^(ɵ) underset(k)rarr 2SO_(4)^(2-) + I_(3)^(ɵ)` [Net reaction] `{:(a,b,0,0,),(a-x,b-3x,2x,x,):}` Rate `= k[S_(2)O_(8)^(2-)][I^(ɵ)]` [from slowest step] `= k(a-x)(b-3x) = (-d(a-x))/(dt) = (dx)/(dt)` |
