A proposed mechanism for the preparation of COBr2 from CO(g) and Br2 is:
Br2 ⇄ 2 Br (g) fast
Br(g) + CO (g) ⇄ COBr fast
COBr + Br2 → COBr2 + Br slow
The correct rate law for this mechanism is:
k [CO][Br2]
k [CO] / [Br2]1/2
k[Br2]
k [CO]2[Br2]
k [CO][Br2]3/2

A 65.0 mL sample of 1.0 M NaOH is mixed with 48.0 mL of 1.0 M H2SO4 in a large Styrofoam coffee cup; the cup is fitted with a lid through which passes a calibrated thermometer. The temperature of each solution before mixing is 24.4°C. After adding the NaOH solution to the coffee cup, the mixed solutions are stirred until reaction is complete. Assume that the density of the mixed solutions is 1.0 g/mL, that the specific heat of the mixed solutions is 4.18 J/(g •°C), and that no heat is lost to the surroundings. The ΔΗrxn for the neutralization of NaOH with H2SO4 is –114 kJ/mol H2SO4.
What is the maximum measured temperature in the Styrofoam cup? ---------
Also, 35.985 is incorrect as they mention at the site, "H2SO4 is not the limiting reagent. Remember to consider the stoichiometry of the balanced equation for the reaction".

Acetylene, C2H2 (boiling point = –84°C), is produced by the reaction of solid calcium carbide, CaC2, and liquid water. Calcium hydroxide solution is the other product of the reaction. 127 kJ of energy is transferred to the atmosphere per mole of acetylene reacted. What mass of calcium carbide in kilograms and volume of water in gallons are needed to produce 125 cubic feet of acetylene at 17°C and 1.0 bar? What quantity of energy in megajoules will be transferred in the process?
