I need assistance kinetics lab

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have all my data i just need assistance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow no one is going to help me

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

What kind of help do you need? can you post your questions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its a kinetics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can take a pic over of the data and table did the calacultion but i cant find how to find the order of the reaction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anyone there

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

show me the data I will try to help you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one sec im uploading it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

do you have the reaction?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes i do ill type it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6I- + Bro3- + 6H+ ____> 3I2 +Br- +3H2O

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

are you sure the rate is well calculated?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rate= K(I-)^m(BrO3-)^n(H+)^P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here were some instructions and table info i used to calculate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is what the instructions said i was suppose to to then and here is my working to porve

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

because when you decrease the concentration of I- and H+ looks like the rate of the reaction is higher meaning that when you decrease one of the reactants the reaction go faster

OpenStudy (anonymous):

understood

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

Usually when you increase the reactant the rate increase or remain the same, if they decrease the order will be negative. It can happens in certain reactions but I don't think will be this case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first table i sent written pen is my data and calculation of the concentration of the reactants. The second data table i sent was used for my caluclation to determine my M2 and plus was the amounts used in actually experiment from intially 100ml of concentration.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have learnt how to find order of reactant in lecture. I understand in lab some numbers are not clean cut but i honestly do not know what to do cause im getting nasty number. The possible order i can get are from the options 1, 2, and or 0 from the instructions i sent on how to find order of reactnts.

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

Yea I see... Please review the concentrations calculations because from table 19-1 looks to me that the concentration of I- in the second experiment is double than in the first one and BrO3- is double in the 3rd experiment than in the first and second and protons is also double in the 4th experiment respect to the 1,2,3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did i sent you a pic.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here is how i found the concentration of reaction mixture 1 from the data from table 19-1

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

Your final volume when you mix tube 1 and 2 will be for all the experiment 50mL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait dont answer that question. I see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would not work though this is how my table is coming out reaction1 I- is 0.02M BrO3- is 0.08 H+ is 0.2 2 is 0.02M is0.08 is 0.2 basically the are all coimng out the same

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

KI KBrO3 HCl 1 0.002 0.008 0.02 2 0.004 0.008 0.02 3 0.002 0.016 0.02 4 0.002 0.008 0.04

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so use the intial from 19-1 and the final as 50ml right?

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh cause i was using 100ml from the instructions as a the intial

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

do you got it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes but do i use the book method to solve for rate order as rate1/rate2 or is use as i was taught in lecture rate 2/rate1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because i never really solved order based on ratios. they were simply strightforward if not i would have to take the ln

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

doesn't matter if you use rate 2/1 or rate 1/2 you will get the same answer because you have to do in parallel the rate of concentrations in the same order. I usually choose the bigger divided by the smaller so I get a number bigger than 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that what i would do too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when i found the rate order for I- i ill call x the power i got 0.429=0.5^x there x would be 1 or first order

OpenStudy (cuanchi):

Now you can see from 1 and 2 if you duplicate the concentration of I- the rate increase also double, what is going to be a 1st order for I- If you duplicate the concentration of
