Multiple choice-- please help! Study the chemical reaction.

A ⟶ B + C

This reaction is second order in A.

What is the rate law for this reaction?

Rate = K [B][C]^2
Rate = K [A]^2

The rate law for the reaction : r=k.[A]²

Given

Reaction

A ⟶ B + C

Required

The rate law

Solution

The rate law is a chemical equation that shows the relationship between reaction rate and the concentration / pressure of the reactants

For the second-order reaction it can be:

1. the square of the concentration of one reactant.

2. the product of the concentrations of two reactants.

And the reaction should be(for second order) :

2A ⟶ B + C

Thus, for reaction above (reactant consumption rate) :

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j

the correct answer would be d. hope this !
