You want to determine the percent of sulfate in an unknown sample of a hydrated metal sulfate with the formula My(SO4)x·nH2O. You dissolve 0.2888 g of your unknown in DI water and heat to near boiling. You react the dissolved unknown with a hot barium chloride solution and you collect the barium sulfate you make via gravity filtration. The filter paper weighed 0.597 g after a piece was torn off. The dry barium sulfate crystal and the filter paper weighed 0.910 g. Answer the following:
1. What is the molar mass of barium sulfate?
2. What is the molar mass of sulfate?
3. How many moles of sulfate were produced?
4. How many grams of sulfate were produced?
5. What is the percent sulfate?
I know the answer for the first two but im unsure of the next couple of questions. Thank you in advnadce :)

1.)Describe the effect of increasing the concentration of the reactants on the rate of a reaction.
2.)The exponents in a rate law have no relationship to the coefficients in the overall balanced equation for the reaction. Give an example of a balanced equation and the rate law for a reaction that clearly demonstrates this.
3.)Compare the half-life equations for a first-order and a second-order reaction. For which reaction order is the value of the half-life independent of the reactant concentration??

Experiments show that this is a first-order reaction, with a rate
constant of 0.0173 s-1 at 650°C. Identify each of the
following statements about this reaction as true or false. (Use the
drop-down menu and select "True" or "False" for each. You must get
all 4 correct.)
True/False The mechanism for this reaction must involve
two or more elementary steps.
True/False The activation energy for the reaction cannot
be determined without additional data.
True/False The rate constant would be smaller than
0.0173 s-1 at 500°C.
True/False The rate-determining step for the reaction
could involve a bimolecular collision between two PH3
molecules.
