For the decomposition of azoisopropane to hexane and nitrogen at $543$ $K ,$ the following data are obtained.
$t$ $(sec)$ | $P(m m \text { of } H g)$ |
$0$ | $35.0$ |
$360$ | $54.0$ |
$720$ | $63.0$ |
Calculate the rate constant.
The decomposition of azoisopropane to hexane and nitrogen at $543 K$ is represented by the following equation.
After time, $t,$ total pressure$P _{t}=\left( P _{0}-p\right)+p+p$
$\Rightarrow P _{t}= P _{0}+p$
$\Rightarrow p= P _{t}- P _{0}$
Therefore, $P_{0}-p=P_{0}-\left(P_{t}-P_{0}\right)$
$=2 P_{0}-P_{t}$
For a first order reaction,
$k=\frac{2.303}{t} \log \frac{ P _{0}}{ P _{0}-p}$
$=\frac{2.303}{t} \log \frac{P_{0}}{2 P_{0}-P_{t}}$
When $t=360 \,s$,
$=2.175 \times 10^{-3} \,s ^{-1}$
$k=\frac{2.303}{360 s } \log \frac{35.0}{2 \times 35.0-54.0}$
When $t=720\, s$
$=2.235 \times 10^{-3} \,s ^{-1}$
$k=\frac{2.303}{720 s } \log \frac{35.0}{2 \times 35.0-63.0}$
Hence, the average value of rate constant is
$k=\frac{\left(2.175 \times 10^{-3}\right)+\left(2.235 \times 10^{-3}\right)}{2} s ^{-1}$
$=2.21 \times 10^{-3} \,s ^{-1}$
The reaction $2 A + B _{2} \rightarrow 2 AB$ is an elementary reaction.
For a certain quantity of reactants, if the volume of the reaction vessel is reduced by a factor of $3,$ the rate of the reaction increases by a factor of $.....$. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).
Order of a reaction can have
For reaction
$X_2(g) + Y_2(g) \rightarrow 2XY (g)$
The following data are observed
$[X_2]$ | $[Y_2]$ | Rate of appearance of $XY$ ($M/sec$) |
$0.1$ | $0.1$ | $5 × 10^{-6}$ |
$0.2$ | $0.1$ | $10^{-5}$ |
$0.2$ | $0.2$ | $4 × 10^{-5}$ |
Rate constant of reaction will (in $M^{1-n}\,sec^{-1}$) where $'n'$ is order of reaction
In the following reaction $A \longrightarrow B + C$, rate constant is $0.001\, Ms^{-1}$. If we start with $1\, M$ of $A$ then concentration of $A$ and $B$ after $10\, minutes$ are respectively
