The label on a bottle of 3% (by volume) hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, purchased at a grocery store, states that the solution should be stored in a cool, dark place. H2O2decomposes slowly over time, and the rate of decomposition increases with an increase in temperature and in the presence of light. However, the rate of decomposition increases dramatically if a small amount of powdered MnO- is added to the solution. The decomposition products are H2O and O2. MnO2 is not consumed in the reaction. Write the equation for the decomposition of H2O2. What role does MnO2 play? In the chemistry lab, a student substituted a chunk of MnO2 for the powdered compound. The reaction rate was not appreciably increased. WTiat is one possible explanation for this observation? Is MnO2 part of the stoichiometry of the decomposition of H2O2?
Nitramide, NO2NH2, decomposes slowly in aqueous solution according to the following reaction: NO2NH2(aq) N2O(g) + H2O() The reaction follows the experimental rate law Rate=k[NO2NH2][H3O+] (a) What is the apparent order of the reaction in a pH buffered solution? (In a pH buffered solution, the concentration of H3O+ is a constant.) (b) Which of the following mechanisms is the most appropriate for the interpretation of this rate law? Explain. (Note that when writing the expression for K, the equilibrium constant, [H2O] is not involved. See Chapter 15.) Mechanism 1 NO2NH2K1N2O+H2O Mechanism 2 NO2NH2+H3O+k2k2NO2NH3++H2O(rapidequilibrium) NO2NH3+k3N2O+H3O+(rate-limitingstep) Mechanism 3 NO2NH2+H2Ok4k4NO2NH+H3O+(rapidequilibrium)NO2NHk5N2O+OH(rate-limitingstep)H3O++OHk62H2O(veryfastreaction) (c) Show the relationship between the experimentally observed rate constant, k, and the rate constants in the selected mechanism. (d) Based on the experimental rate law, will the reaction rate increase or decrease if the pH of the solution is increased?
One experimental procedure that can be used to determine the rate law of a reaction is the method of initial rates. What data are gathered in the method of initial rates, and how are these data manipulated to determine k and the orders of the species in the rate law? Are the units for k. the rate constant, the same for all rate laws? Explain. If a reaction is first order in A, what happens to the rate if [A] is tripled? If the initial rate for a reaction increases by a factor of 16 when [A] is quadrupled, what is the order of n? If a reaction is third order in A and [A] is doubled, what happens to the initial rate? If a reaction is zero order, what effect does [A] have on the initial rate of a reaction?
Why awe elementary reactions involving three or more reactants very uncommon?

If a statement is false, indicate why it is incorrect. (a) The reaction must occur in a single step. (b) This is a second-order reaction overall. (c) Raising the temperature will cause the value of k to decrease. (d) Raising the temperature lowers the activation energy for this reaction. (e) If the concentrations of both reactants are doubled, the rate will double. (f) Adding a catalyst in the reaction will cause the initial rate to increase.

The following statements relate to the reaction for the formation of HI: H2(g) + I2(g) -* 2 HI(g) Rate = it[HJ [I2J Determine which of the following statements are true. If a statement is false, indicate why it is incorrect. The reaction must occur in a single step. This is a second-order reaction overall. Raising the temperature will cause the value of k to decrease. Raising the temperature lowers the activation energy' for this reaction. If the concentrations of both reactants are doubled, the rate will double. Adding a catalyst in the reaction will cause the initial rate to increase.
