2 H2O2 (aq) 2H2O (l) + O2 (g)
Exp 3 2M 1M 8M/s
Find x:
exp3 rate3 = k[A3] x [B3] y
exp1 rate1 = k[A1] x [B1] y
8 = 2x
log 8 = log 2x = x log 2
x = log 8 = 3
log 2
Solving for k; we will use exp 3 data, but you can use any set
8 M/s =k
(2M)3(1M)
8 M/s =k
(8M3)(1M) M: 1 – 3 – 1 = – 3
M0.25 = M-1.10
M 0.50 M 0.85
1 /s =k
M3 M: 0.25 – 0.50 – 0.85 = – 1.10
k = 1 M-3 s-1
Important points:
- levels of buret and drying tube must be equal for readings
- you can dump excess water out
- make sure all air bubbles are out
- check for leaks
- Add H2O2 just before you are ready for exp to begin
-wait 1 – 2 mL before call time “0 min”
note: we are following the change in volume over a
particular change in time; therefore, it doesn’t matter when
call time zero.
Plot cumulative volume, mL vs time, min
