Q1. A catalyst support adsorbs 2 cm3 of nitrogen at 1 mbar pressure and 6 cm3 at 6 mbar. Find the volume of gas corresponding to one monolayer coverage (Vm).
(nb Give answer to 2 dp even if its an integer - eg write 5.00. DO NOT give units in your answer)
Q2.
In the following mechanism * indicates a radical species. Identify the nature of each of the steps in the reaction:
1. Br2 + H2 --> 2Br* + H2
2. Br2 + Br2--> 2Br* + Br2
3. Br* + H2 --> HBr + H*
4. H* + Br2 --> HBr + Br*
5. H* + HBr --> H2 + Br*
6. Br* + HBr --> Br2 + H*
7. 2Br* + Br2 --> 2Br2
