Question
Table 1 shows the temperature dependence of a second order reaction (decomposition of acetaldehyde, CH3CHO CH4 + CO) rate constant (k) in the temperature(T) range of 700-100K.
d[CH3CHO]/dt = -k[CH3CHO]2
Table 1
(a) From the integration of the rate equation shown above, obtain the expression for the concentration of CH3CHO at time t. [CH3CHO]0 represent the initial concentration of CH3CHO at t=0.
(b) [CH3CHO]0 is 1.0M. Plot the concentration of CH3CHO as a function of time in 0-600 second range at the temperature of 700K and 760K. Plot the two data in a single figure panel. When calculating the time-dependent concentration of CH3CHO, use less than 5 second interval between each time points.
