Keen observation of the rates of reaction about the series of steps leading to the formation of products is called the reaction mechanism . The reaction between H_(2) and I_(2) to form hydrogen iodide was originally postulated as a simple one step reaction H_(2) + I_(2) to 2 HI Rate = k [H_(2)][I_(2)] but the formation of HI has been explained on the basis of the following mechanism ({:( I_(2) , to , 2 I "(fast)" , ... (i) ), ( H_(2) + I , to , H_(2) I "(fast)" , ... (ii)) , (H_(2) I + I , to , 2HI "(slow)" , ... (iii) ):})/("overall" H_(2) + I_(2) to 2 HI For the reaction 2NO_(2) + F_(2) to 2 NO_(2) F following mechanism has been provided NO_(2) + F_(2) overset("slow")(to) NO_(2)F + F NO_(2) + F overset("fast")(to) NO_(2)F Thus rate expression of the above reaction can be written as

Answer»

`r = k[NO_(2)]^(2) [F_(2)]`
`r = k[NO_(2)]`
`r = k [NO_(2)][F_(2)]`
`r = k [F_(2)]`

Solution :Rate is GIVEN by the SLOWEST step of the REACTION so rate is r = `k[NO_(2)][F_(2)]`.

Keen observation of the rates of reaction about the series of steps leading to the formation of products is called the reaction mechanism . The reaction between H_(2) and I_(2) to form hydrogen iodide was originally postulated as a simple one step reaction H_(2) + I_(2) to 2 HI Rate = k [H_(2)][I_(2)] but the formation of HI has been explained on the basis of the following mechanism ({:( I_(2) , to , 2 I "(fast)" , ... (i) ), ( H_(2) + I , to , H_(2) I "(fast)" , ... (ii)) , (H_(2) I + I , to , 2HI "(slow)" , ... (iii) ):})/("overall" H_(2) + I_(2) to 2 HI For the reaction 2NO(g) + 2H_(2)(g)to N_(2)(g) + 2H_(2)O(g) the rate expressions can be written in the following ways (d[N_(2)])/(dt) = k_(1) [NO] [H_(2)] , (d[H_(2)O])/(dt) = k [NO] [H_(2)] - (d[NO])/(dt) = k'_(1) = [NO] [H_(2)] , - (d[H_(2)])/(dt)= k''_(1) [NO][H_(2)] The relationship between k , k_(1) , k'_(1) , k''_(1)is

Answer»

` k = k_(1) = k'_(1) = k''_(1)`
`k = 2k_(1) = k'_(1) = k''_(1)`
`k = 2k'_(1) = k_(1) = k''_(1)`
`k = k_(1) = k'_(1) = 2k''_(1)`

SOLUTION :`-(1)/(2) (d[NO])/(DT) = -(1)/(2) (d[H_(2)])/(dt) = (d[N_(2)])/(dt) = (1)/(2) (d[H_(2)O])/(dt)`
`(1)/(2) k'_(1) [NO] [H_(2)] = (1)/(2) k''_(1) [NO][H_(2)] = k_(1) [NO][H_(2)]`
= `(1)/(2) k[NO][H_(2)] therefore k'_(1) = k''_(1) = 2k_(1) = k`

K_(e ) " for " PCl_(5)(g) hArr PCl_(3) (g)+Cl_(2)(g) is 0.04 at 250^(@)C. How many moles of PCl_(5) must be added to a 3L flask to obtain a Cl_(2) concentration of 0.15 M

Answer»

4.2 MOLES
2.1 moles
5.5 moles
6.3 moles

Solution :At EQUILIBRIUM the moles of `Cl_(2)` MUST be =`0.15xx3=0.45`
`PCl_(5) HARR PCl_(3)+Cl_(2)`
`(x-0.45)/(3) "" (0.45)/(3) (0.45)/(3)` Eqb. CONC.
`K_(e )=([PCl_(3)][Cl_(2)])/([PCl_(5)])`
`therefore 0.04=(0.15xx0.15)/((x-0.45)//3) "" therefore x=2.1` moles

Answer :C
38.

KCN is highly poisonous while K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)] is not. Why ?

Answer»

Solution :KCN ionizes to give `CN^(-)` ions which combine with the protein (cytochrome 'c') present in the BLOOD and thereby block the oxygen binding site of the ENZYME resulting into DEATH
`KCNrarrK^(+)+CN^(-)`
`K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]` ionizes as
`K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]rarr4 K^(+)+[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-)`
The complex ion `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(4-)` does not ionize to give `CN^(-)`ions. Hence, it is not toxic.
