DU Experimental Determination Of Different Reactions Worksheet 1. For the reaction A + 3B –> C, explain in words how the rate of consumption/formation of A, B, and C are related to each other.

2. For the reaction A + 3B –> C, if the [C] = 0.1 M at 5 seconds and [C] = 0.6M at 75 seconds, what is the rate of the reaction?

3. If a reaction has five intermediates, a. how many total steps is the reaction? and b. how many transition states are there in the free energy diagram?

4. Explain how reaction order is determined from a set of experiments with multiple reactants at different concentrations.

5. For the reaction A –> B, assume the reaction order is two with respect to A. a. What are the units of k? b. What should you plot to determine k?

6. How would you experimentally determine the activation energy (consider the Arrhenius equation)?

7. If a multi-step reaction mechanism is known for a specific overall reaction, these individual steps are known as elementary reactions. What is true about the reaction order(s) of elementary reactions?
