Solutions


    1. 16 min
      Explanation:
      75% completion means 2 half lifes so 50% completion means only one half life.
      k=2.303tlogaax
      k=2.30332log(10010075)...(1)
      k=2.303tlog(10010050)...(2)
      from (1) and (2), we get
      t = 16 mins
    1. Velocity constant
      Explanation:
      It is describing the speed of a reaction i.e. how concentration of reactant changes w.r.t. time. Hence it is called Velocity constant
    1. 921.2 R
      Explanation:
      logk2k1=Ea2.303R(1T11T2)
      logkk10=Ea2.303R(12001400)
      log10=Ea2.303×R(400200200×400)
      Ea=2.303×200×400R200(log10=1)
      Ea=921.2R
    1. Threshold energy
      Explanation:
      The minimum amount of energy required by the reacting molecules at the time of collisions in order to produce effective collisions is called threshold energy.
    1. 1200 min
      Explanation:
      t99.9=10 × t1/2
      detail:
      here, k=0.693120
      also, t=2.303×1200.693log103=2.303×120×30.693log10
      t=2.303×120×3×10.693=1196.361200
  1. The rate of reaction would increase on increasing the temperature as it increases the number of collision as well as number of effective collisions.

  2. Second order, because unit is Lmol1s1.

  3. Activation energy (Ea) is the minimum amount of energy which the reactant must absorb to cross over the activated complex energy barrier. Mathematically, Ea = ET - ER, where ET is the energy of the activated complex, and ER is the energy of the reactants.

  4. For a first order reaction,
    k=0.693t1/2
    0.69360min.
    =1.155×102min1.
    =0.69360×60=1.925×104s1.

  5. If one of the reactant is present in excess, bimolecular reaction will become kinetically first order.

  6. Rate of reaction = changeinconcentrationtimeinterval
    (0.84200.2105)mol/L2hr=0.63152=0.3158mol/L/hr

    1. Let rate law is
      Rate=k[A]x[B]y
      So,1.5×103=k[0.1]x[0.1]y...(i)
      3.0×103=k[0.2]x[0.2]y...(ii)
      6.0×103=k[0.2]x[0.4]y...(iii)
      From eq.(ii) and (iii)
      6×1033×103=k[0.2]x[0.4]yk[0.2]x[0.2]y
      2y = 2
       y = 1
      From eq.(i) and (ii)
      3×1031.5×103=k[0.2]x[0.2]1k[0.1]x[0.1]1
      2=2x×2
      2x = 1
       x = 0
      Thus, the rate is given as Rate =k[B]1
    2. Rate = k[B]
      k=Rate[B]=3×1030.2
      =15×103min1
    3.  C + E (slow) is the possible reaction with is consistent with the rate law i.e.,
      Rate=k[B]1.
      Hence, mechanism II is appropriate for the reaction.
  7. CH3COOC2H5+H2OCH3COOH+C2H5OH
    rate = k [CH3COOC2H5]1 [H2O]0

  8. Here [R]0 = 0.10 M
    t= 3 hours =180 min
    k= 0.0051 min-1
    Using the formula
    K=2.303tlog[R]0[R]
    0.0051=2.303180log0.10[R]
    log0.10[R]=0.0051×1802.303
    log0.10[R]=0.0051×1802.303= 0.3986
    0.10[R] = antilog (0.3986)
    0.10[R]=2.503[R]
    =0.102.503= 0.309 M
  9. As sucrose decomposes according to the first order rate law,
    K=2.303tlog[R]0[R]
    The aim is to find [R]/[R]0
    t1/2=3.00hour
    K=0.693t1/2=0.6933hr
    = 0.231 hr-1
    Hence,
    0.231hr1=2.3038hrlog[R]0[R]
    or log[R]0[R]=0.8024
    or [R]0[R]= Antilog (0.8024)
    = 6.345
    [R][R]=16.345= 0.158
