Answer #1

let the rate equation be,

rate = k[A]^x.[B]^y.[C]^z

with,

k = rate constant

x, y and z are order with respect to [A]. [B] and [C]

From experiment 1 an 2, [B] and [C] are constant

rate1/rate2 = 2 x 10^-3/8 x 10^-3 = (0.1/0.2)^x

taking log of both sides and solving for x,

x = 2

From experiment 2 and 3, [C] is consant,

rate2/rate3 = 8 x 10^-3/1.8 x 10^-2 = (0.2/0.3)^2.(0.2/0.4)^y

taking log of both sides and solving for y,

y = 3

From experiment 3 and 4,

rate3/rate4 = 1.8 x 10^-2/1.6 x 10^-2 = (0.3/0.4)^2.(0.4/0.6)^3.(0.4/0.2)^z

taking log of both sides and solving for z,

z = 1

Thus, the rate equation will be,

rate = k[A]^2.[B]^3.[C]^1

rate constant k = 1.6 x 10^-2/(0.4)^2.(0.6)^3.(0.2) = 2.315
