Write a rate law for this reaction. b. If the initial rate of formation of XY, is 0.0038 M/s and the initial concentrations X amd Y are 0.26 M an what is the rate constant of the reaction?

Explanation / Answer

3)

a)

doubling concentration of X2 doubles the rate

So, order of X2 is 1

tripling concentration of Y triples the rate

So, order of Y is 1

Z has no effect.

So, Z do not appear in rate law

So, rate law is:

rate = k [X2][Y]

b)

concentration of Z has no effect on rate because Z must not be part of rate determining step

c)

Rate depends on the slowest step

Lets make the 1st step as slowest

Then reactant in 1st step should have 1 molecule each of X2 and Y

step 1: X2 + Y —> X2Y (slow step)

step 2: X2Y + Z —> XY + XZ (fast step)

Adding both step should given overall reaction
