I have to answer questions on a lab about the kinetics of a bleach reaction. I have the graphs and data for it but I\'m not sure on the answers. Any help is appreciated!!
[A], In[A] and 1/A] of Trial 1 10 TA , 1-3.24E-03\"X+ 0.679 r^2 = 0.942 -9.74E-03% + -0222 2 0.999 0.0350% + 0.331 2= 0.942 -5 0 50 150 200 Time
Solution
1. reaction order
trial1: 1st order
trial 2: 1st order
trial 3: 1st order
trial 4: graphs seems improper, order may be 1
2. rate constant
is the slope of ln (A) vs time line
using linear graphs-
trial one- -(-0.0356) sec-1 = 0.0356 sec-1
similarly all
trial 2- 0.0125 sec-1
trial 3- 0.0124 sec-1
trial 4 0.488 sec-1
5. Half life = 0.693/rate contant
trial 1- 19 sec
trial 2- 55 sec
trial3- 55 sec
trial4- 1 sec
6. Since half life as can be seen from the formula is only dependent on rate constant (which is in turn only temprearute dependent), it will be constant as long as temprerature is constant.
7. the collected data indicates constant half life within a sample since the rate constant value for ech trial and the temperature is constant.
8. since the calculated rate constant values for different trials is different, half lives would be different
