Problem 1: Chemical Kinetics. In an experimental setup, you have worked with ethylene and try to conduct a combustion reaction. And for this case, we refer to the combustion of, C2H4 (g) + 3 02 (g) → 2 CO2 (g) + 2 H20 (g) What will happen if the concentration of C2H4 is decreasing at 0.036 M/s rate, (a) what rates of change will take effect on the concentrations of C0, and H,0? (b) On the other hand, if we take the reaction of N2H4 (g) + H2 (g) → 2 NH3 (g) and when the rate of decrease in N2H4 partial pressure in a closed reaction vessel is 74 torr per hour. What will be the rates of change of ammonia's partial pressure including the total pressure on the vessel of the reaction mentioned?

Consider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.
11.41 For a drug to be effective in treating an illness, its levels in the bloodstream must be maintained for a period of time. One way to measure the level of a drug in the body is to measure its rate of appearance in the urine. The rate of excretion of penicillin is first order, with a half-life of about 30 min. If a person receives an injection of 25 mg of penicillin at t = 0, how much penicillin remains in the body after 3 hours?

(b) Estimate the instantaneous rate of dimerization at 3200 s from a graph of time versus [C4H6]. What are the units of this rate? (c) Determine the average rate of formation of C8H12 at 1600 s and the instantaneous rate of formation at 3200 s from the rates found in parts (a) and (b).

Iodomethane (CH3I) is a commonly used reagent in organic chemistry. When used properly, this reagent allows chemists to introduce methyl groups in many different useful applications. The chemical does pose a risk as a carcinogen, possibly owing to iodomethanes ability to react with portions of the DNA strand (if they were to come in contact). Consider the following hypothetical initial rates data: [DNA]0 ( mol/L) [CH3I]0 ( mol/L) Initial Rate (mol/Ls) 0.100 0.100 3.20 104 0.100 0.200 6.40 104 0.200 0.200 1.28 103 Which of the following could be a possible mechanism to explain the initial rate data?
