The activation energy for the decomposition of cyclobutane (C4H8) to ethylene (C2H4) is 261 kJ/mol. If the system produces ethylene at the rate of 0.043 g/s at 500C, what is the rate if the temperature increases to 600C?
Consider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.
Can a reaction mechanism ever be proven correct? Can it be proven incorrect?
Consider a reaction of the type aA products, in which the rate law is found to he rate = k[A]3 (termolecular reactions are improbable but possible). If the first half-tife of the reaction is found to he 40. s, what is the time for the second half-life?
