Answer #1

Answer:

(12) For first-order reaction rate law is

ln[A]=-kt + ln[A]0

where [A]0=initial concentration of A,

k=rate constant, [A]= concentration of A at time t.

Given [A]0=8.30 M, k=0.428 s-1, [A]=? at time t=15 s.

ln[A]=(- 0.428 s-1 x 15 s) + ln[8.30]

ln[A]=-4.3

[A]=e-4.3=0.0135 M.

[A]=0.0135 M.

(13) For first-order reaction rate law is

1/[A]=kt + 1/[A]0

where [A]0=initial concentration of A,

k=rate constant, [A]= concentration of A at time t.

Given [A]0=8.3 M, k=0.428 M-1 s-1, [A]=5 M at t=?

1/(5M)=(0.428 M-1 s-1 x t) + 1/(8.3 M)

(0.428 M-1 s-1 x t)=0.0795 M-1

t=(0.0795 M-1)/(0.428 M-1 s-1)

t=0.1858 s.

(14) Given rate constant, k=9.012 x 10-3 M s-1 and [O3]0=0.322 M

From the units of rate constant, the order od reaction is zero order.

Therefore half-life for the zero-order reaction is

t1/2=[A]0/2k

where [A]0=initial concentration and t1/2=half life.

Therefore here t1/2=[O3]0/2k=(0.322 M)/(2 x 9.012 x 10-3 M s-1)

t1/2=17.865 s.

Please let me know if you have any doubt. Thanks
