Reaction Rates
For the reaction A + 3B -> 2C, How does the rate of disappearance of B compare to the rate of production of C?
The rate of disappearance of B is 3/2 the rate of appearance of C
Write the predicted rate law for the reaction
1A + 2B + 1C -> 2D + 1E
rate = k[A][B]2[C]

What percentage of material will persist after 60 minutes if it's half life is 30 minutes?
25%
What did Ms. Gainey's research consist of when she had join a graduate group during her time as an undergrad?
Light-activated organic molecular motors
For the reaction 2A + 3B -> 4C + 5D
Which product has the greatest rate of appearance? And WHY?
Product D because it will appear by a factor of 5, whereas product C will appear by a factor of 4 (which is less than product D).
For the rate law Rate = k[A][B]2
The overall order for this reaction is _____
3rd order
What is the intermediate in the following mechanism?
Step 1: H2O2 + I- -> H2O + OI-
Step 2: H2O2 + OI- -> H2O + O2 + I-
OI-

Capybaras
In the combustion of methane,
CH4 + 2 O2 -> CO2 + 2 H2O
Which reactant has the greatest rate of disappearance?
O2
Rate = k[CHCl3]2[Cl]
If the concentration of CHCl3 doubles while the concentration of Cl2 is kept the same, the rate will
Quadruple
Write the rate law
Step 1: H2O2 + I- -> H2O + OI- (slow)
Step 2: H2O2 + OI- -> H2O + O2 + I- (fast)
rate = k[H2O2][I-]
True or False:
Catalysts do not alter the overall reaction and never appear in the rate law
True
Where did Ms. Gainey go to college for her undergrad?
Louisiana State University (LSU)
