Question

Rate information was obtained for the following reaction at 25°C and 33°C;

 

Cr(H2O)6 3+ + SCN¯ ---> Cr(H2O)5NCS2+ + H2O(l)

 

                Initial Rate             [Cr(H2O)6 3+]                       [SCN-]

@ 25°C    2.0x10-11                     1.0x10-4                                0.10

                 2.0x10-10                     1.0x10-3                                0.10

                 9.0x10-10                     2.0x10-3                                0.15

                 2.4x10-9                      3.0x10-3                                0.20

@ 33°C    1.4x10-10                     1.0x10-4                                0.20

 

 

  1. a) Write a rate law consistent with the experimental data.
  2. b) What is the value of the rate constant at 25°C?
