Here's how to calculate the rates based on the given data and balanced equation 2X+4Y→3Z+5Q.
The initial data for Y is:
[Y]initial=1.350 M at tinitial=0.00 s
[Y]final=0.407 M at tfinal=11.9 s
Step 1: Calculate the rate of disappearance of Y.
The rate of disappearance of Y is given by the negative change in concentration of Y over the change in time.
−ΔtΔ[Y]=−(tfinal−tinitial)([Y]final−[Y]initial)
−ΔtΔ[Y]=−(11.9s−0.00s)(0.407M−1.350M)
−ΔtΔ[Y]=−11.9s(−0.943M)
−ΔtΔ[Y]=0.079243697 M/s
Rounding to three significant figures:
a) The rate of disappearance of Y: 0.0792M/s
Step 2: Calculate the rates of disappearance of X and appearance of Z and Q using stoichiometry.
The general relationship between rates for the reaction 2X+4Y→3Z+5Q is:
Rate=−21ΔtΔ[X]=−41ΔtΔ[Y]=31ΔtΔ[Z]=51ΔtΔ[Q]
b) The rate of disappearance of X:
−ΔtΔ[X]=42×(−ΔtΔ[Y])
−ΔtΔ[X]=21×0.079243697 M/s
−ΔtΔ[X]=0.0396218485 M/s
Rounding to three significant figures: 0.0396M/s
c) The rate of appearing of Z:
ΔtΔ[Z]=43×(−ΔtΔ[Y])
ΔtΔ[Z]=43×0.079243697 M/s
ΔtΔ[Z]=0.05943277275 M/s
Rounding to three significant figures: 0.0594M/s
d) The rate of appearing of Q:
ΔtΔ[Q]=45×(−ΔtΔ[Y])
ΔtΔ[Q]=45×0.079243697 M/s
ΔtΔ[Q]=0.09905462125 M/s
Rounding to three significant figures: 0.0991M/s
e) The overall rate of reaction:
The overall rate of reaction can be calculated using any species, divided by its stoichiometric coefficient. Using Y:
Overall Rate=−41ΔtΔ[Y]
Overall Rate=41×0.079243697 M/s
Overall Rate=0.01981092425 M/s
Rounding to three significant figures: 0.0198M/s
