(a) The reaction A(aq) → B(aq) is a fifirst order reaction with respect to A(aq). The concentration of A(aq) after 100.0 s of reaction is 0.777 M. The concentration of A(aq) after 300.0 s is 0.333M. At what time will the concentration of A(aq) be equal to 0.222 M? The temperature is 25.0 ◦C throughout. (b) The reaction 2 A(aq) → B(aq) + C(aq) is a second order reaction with respect to A(aq). When the concentration of A(aq) is 0.200 M and the temperature is 25.0 ◦C, the rate of reaction is 0.00100 M/s. When we increase the concentration of A(aq) to 0.600 M and we increase the temperature to 50.0 ◦C, the rate of reaction is 0.06300 M/s. What is the activation energy for this reaction?

Question

(a) The reaction A(aq) B(aq) is a fifirst order reaction with respect to A(aq). The concentration of A(aq) after 100.0 s of reaction is 0.777 M. The concentration of A(aq) after 300.0 s is 0.333M. At what time will the concentration of A(aq) be equal to 0.222 M? The temperature is 25.0 C throughout.

(b) The reaction 2 A(aq) B(aq) + C(aq) is a second order reaction with respect to A(aq).

When the concentration of A(aq) is 0.200 M and the temperature is 25.0 C, the rate of reaction

is 0.00100 M/s. When we increase the concentration of A(aq) to 0.600 M and we increase the

temperature to 50.0 C, the rate of reaction is 0.06300 M/s. What is the activation energy for this

reaction?
