The label on a bottle of 3% (by volume) hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, purchased at a grocery store, states that the solution should be stored in a cool, dark place. H2O2decomposes slowly over time, and the rate of decomposition increases with an increase in temperature and in the presence of light. However, the rate of decomposition increases dramatically if a small amount of powdered MnO- is added to the solution. The decomposition products are H2O and O2. MnO2 is not consumed in the reaction. Write the equation for the decomposition of H2O2. What role does MnO2 play? In the chemistry lab, a student substituted a chunk of MnO2 for the powdered compound. The reaction rate was not appreciably increased. WTiat is one possible explanation for this observation? Is MnO2 part of the stoichiometry of the decomposition of H2O2?
Consider the following hypothetical reaction: 2AB2(g)A2(g)+2B2(g)A 500.0-mL flask is filled with 0.384 mol of AB2. The appearance of A2 is monitored at timed intervals. Assume that temperature and volume are kept constant. The data obtained are shown in the table below. (a) Make a similar table for the disappearance of AB2. (b) What is the average rate of disappearance of AB2 over the second and third 10-minute intervals? (c) What is the average rate of appearance of A2 between t=30 and t=50?
11.41 For a drug to be effective in treating an illness, its levels in the bloodstream must be maintained for a period of time. One way to measure the level of a drug in the body is to measure its rate of appearance in the urine. The rate of excretion of penicillin is first order, with a half-life of about 30 min. If a person receives an injection of 25 mg of penicillin at t = 0, how much penicillin remains in the body after 3 hours?
Iodomethane (CH3I) is a commonly used reagent in organic chemistry. When used properly, this reagent allows chemists to introduce methyl groups in many different useful applications. The chemical does pose a risk as a carcinogen, possibly owing to iodomethanes ability to react with portions of the DNA strand (if they were to come in contact). Consider the following hypothetical initial rates data: [DNA]0 ( mol/L) [CH3I]0 ( mol/L) Initial Rate (mol/Ls) 0.100 0.100 3.20 104 0.100 0.200 6.40 104 0.200 0.200 1.28 103 Which of the following could be a possible mechanism to explain the initial rate data?

Show that the ratio of the rate of diffusion of Gas 1 to the rate of diffusion of Gas 2, R1R2, is the same at 0 C and 100C.
Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?

During the discussion of gaseous diffusion for enriching uranium, it was claimed that 235UF6 diffuses 0.4% faster than 238UF6. Show the calculation that supports this value. The molar mass of 235UF6=235.043930+618.998403=349.034348 g/mol, and the molar mass of 238UF6=238.050788+618.998403=352.241206 g/mol.
5. The rate at which a chemical is depleted from a solution is proportional to the concentration of the chemical in the solution. (a) Determine the difference equation (not differential equation) that represents the concentration of the chem- ical C(t) as a function of time. (b) Derive the differential equation that represents the concentration of the chemical C(t) as a function of time. (c) Solve the differential equation with C(0) = Co to obtain C(t).
