(20 marks) The decomposition of ozone in the gas phase 20, —» 302 is catalyzed by chlorine. The experimentally observed rate law for this reaction is: 1d{0,] _ 14/0 3 2 1 Dae 3 ae 7 KIC Flos] The reaction mechanism for this decomposition reaction has been proposed as follows: (1)Ckh+0s “-» clo'+ coz (Initiation) ke (2) ClOs + Os —+ ClO" + O2 eo (Propagation) (8) ClOs' + Os > ClOz' + 202 (4)2Clor “+ cCh+202 ke I (Termination) (5)2ClO0 > Ch+O2 a. Identify intermediates. b. Derive the rate law for ozone based on the above reaction mechanism by using the steady- state approximation for intermediates. When does this rate law derived from the reaction mechanism match with the rate law obtained from the experiment? Q2, (20 marks) For the reaction A --> products, the relationship between the concentration of A and reaction time was collected and listed in the table below: 218HCMC National University Student Name:.

Test if this reaction follows zero-, first-, or second-order by making plots or using MS Excel to perform linear regression. You have to test three cases even if you happen to guess the correct the rate law on the first trial. b. Determine the rate constant for the reaction c. Calculate the half-life for the reaction based on the rate law you have determined. d. At what time will the concentration of A be 0.380? 3. (20 marks) The freezing point depression of stearic acid (8.0 g) with the presence of an unknown compound (1.0 9) can be expressed as follows: 6, = Kym where @1 is the freezing point depression of stearic acid (4.5 °C), Kt is the freezing point depression constant specific for a given solvent (4.50 °C-kg/mol for stearic acid), and m is the molality of the solution. Calculate the molecular weight (g/mol) of the unknown compound?
