Question

A student conducted an experiment to determine what factorsare important in the rate of a reaction between potassium carbonateand hydrochloric acid. The student diluted 4.000 mL of 4.000M K2CO3 to 75.00 mL, then combined thatsolution with 75.00 mL of 2.000 M HCl.
The student tabulated the amount of CO2 gas collected over time.
Use a rearrangement of PV = nRT to solve for the number ofmoles of CO2 produced. You may assume atmospheric pressure and roomtemperature.
It's just that I have a vague background on molar calculationsso not really sure on how start/finish the prolem. Any help isappreciated.

Explanation / Answer

Well i'm suppose to calculate it for every minutes, thus, afterplugging it into excel, I get the 1st min to be 2.45E-05 and 2nd4.9E-05 all the way down to .000495 (20 mins). Would that becorrect? i.e. time is linearly proportional with the number ofmoles of CO2 produced. So what would that tell about theslope then (as in number of moles/time)?
