Need Help on how to find the answers. I don't think mine are right.
A student prepared the following mixtures and measured the time each took to react. Calculate the average time for each mixture (in seconds).
Mixture | Vol. of 4.0 M acetone (mL) | Vol. of 1.0 M HCl (mL) | Vol. of 0.0050 M I2 (mL) | Vol. of H2O (mL) | Time for Trial 1 | Time for Trial 2 | Average time (s) |
1 | 10 | 10 | 10 | 20 | 249 | 251 | 250 |
2 | 20 | 10 | 10 | 10 | 123 | 125 | 124 |
3 | 10 | 20 | 10 | 10 | 121 | 124 | 122.5 |
4 | 10 | 10 | 5 | 25 | 124 | 126 | 125 |
To complete the following table:
Determine the initial concentration (molarity) of each reagent using the equation:
The Mstock and Vstock for each reagent are given in problem 1. The total volume is 50 mL for each trial.
Calculate the rate of the reaction using the equation
Mixture | [Acetone], M | [H+], M | [I2]0, M | Rate |
1 | 0.80 | 0.20 | 0.0010 | |

Determine the rate law by finding the orders of the reaction (m, n, and p).
Rate = k[acetone]m[H+]n[I2]p
Use the rate law determined in problem 3 to calculate the rate constant, k for each mixture. Find the average rate constant.
Mixture | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Average |
k |
We will now consider reaction mixture 5. Calculate the molar concentrations of each reactant as done in problem 2.
4.0 M Acetone | 1.0 M HCl | 0.0050 M I2 | H2O | |
Volume (mL) | 10.0 | 5.0 | 10.0 | 25.0 |
Concentration (M) | -------------- |
Use the concentrations for Mixture 5 you just calculated, along with the orders of the reaction (m, n, and p, from problem 3), and the average rate constant (problem 4), to solve Eq. 2 for rate. This is a prediction of how long it will take for the I2 color to disappear from your mixture.
Rate = k[acetone]m[H+]n[I2]p
Predicted Rate:____________________
To find the predicted time, recall. Use the rate from problem 5 and the molar concentration of [I2]0 from problem 5 to solve for the predicted time.
