1. The reaction of sucrose with water in an acidic solution is given by: C12H22O11 (sucrose) + H2O C6H12O6 (glucose) + C6H12O6 (fructose)
The reaction has a rate constant of 6.17 x 10-4 s-1 at 35oC. The activation erngy of this reaction is 109.2 kJ/mol. An experiment was done with an initial concentration of 0.40 M of sucrose
. a. What will the concentration of sucrose be after 2.00 hours?
b. How many minutes would it take for ¾ of the sucrose to react?
c. What is the rate constant at 65oC?
