The reaction NO(g) + O,(g) — NO,(g) + 0(g) plays a role in the formation of nitrogen dioxide in automobile engines. Suppose that a series of experiments measured the rate of this reaction at 500 K and produced the following data; [NO] (mol L ’) [OJ (mol L 1) Rate = -A[NO]/Af (mol L_1 s-1) 0.002 0.005 8.0 X 10"'7 0.002 0.010 1.6 X 10-'6 0.006 0.005 2.4 X IO-'6 Derive a rate law for the reaction and determine the value of the rate constant.
Old-fashioned smelling salts consist of ammonium carbonate, (NH4)2CO3. The reaction for the decomposition of ammonium carbonate (NH4)2CO3(s)2NH3(g)+CO(g)+H2O(g) is endothermic. Would the smell of ammonia increase or decrease as the temperature is increased?
Monochloroethane (C2H5Cl) can be produced by the direct reaction of ethane gas (C2H6) with chlorine gas or by the reaction of ethylene gas (C2H4) with hydrogen chloride gas. The second reaction gives almost a 100% yield of pure C2H5Cl at a rapid rate without catalysis. The first method requires light as an energy source or the reaction would not occur. Yet G for the first reaction is considerably more negative than G for the second reaction. Explain how this can be so.
One mechanism for the destruction of ozone in the upper atmosphere is a. Which species is a catalyst? b. Which species is an intermediate? c. Ea for the uncatalyzed reaction O3(g)+O(g)2O2(g) is 14.0 kJ. Ea. for the same reaction when catalyzed is 11.9 kJ. What is the ratio of the rate constant for the catalyzed reaction to that for the uncatalyzed reaction at 25C? Assume that the frequency factor A is the same for each reaction.
Can a reaction mechanism ever be proven correct? Can it be proven incorrect?
For the following reaction C(s)+2H2(g)CH4(g) K=0.26 at 1000C (3 significant figures). What is the equilibrium constant at 750C (3 significant figures)?
Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?
Define stability from both a kinetic and thermodynamic perspective. Give examples to show the differences in these concepts.
