If A and B are mixed together in solution, it is found that the concentration of A decreases with time, but B remains constant. The stoichiometric equation is A → P

a. If the initial concentration of A is less than 0.01 M, it is found that the initial rate is -d[A]/dt = k1[A][B]. Write the integrated form of this equation. What is the order of the reaction with respect to A? With respect to B?

b. If the initial concentration of A is greater than 1 M, it is found that the initial rate is nearly independent of A:

Write the integrated form of this equation. What is the order of the reaction with respect to A? With respect toB?

c. Sketch a plot of the initial rate -d[A]/dt vs. initial concen tration [A]. Write one rate equation that is consistent with experiments at both high and low concentrations of A.
