A student is trying to determine the rate law for a reaction involving 2 reactants, A, B and C using the Method of Initial Rates.

I'm stuck on this homework and don't know where to start!

A student is trying to determine the rate law for a reaction involving 2 reactants, A, B and C using the Method of Initial Rates. The following initial rate data were obtained at 25 degrees C. (Note: the overall stoichiometry of the reaction is: A + B + 2C -> 3 D)

Experiment______Initial [A]______Initial [B]______Initial [C]_______Initial Rate of Reaction

1______________ 0.1 M_________ 0.1 M_________ 0.2 M _________4x10^-4 M/min

2_______________ 0.3 M ________0.2 M _________0.2 M __________1.2x10^-3 M/min

3 ______________0.1 M_________ 0.3 M _________0.2 M ___________4x10^-4 M/min

4______________ 0.3 M_________ 0,4 M _________0.6 M __________3.6x106-3 M/min

a) Write the rate law expression for the reaction

b) What is a plausible rate-determining step in the mechanism of this reaction?

c) What is the numerical value of k, the rate constant for this reaction?

d) In Experiment 1, what would the rate of the reaction be when exactly 1/2 of the A present initially has been consumed?

e) In Experiment 2, what is the maximum concentration obtainable for D? (Assume that the volume remains constant)

f) In Experiment 4, when the reaction has proceeded to completion, which reactant or reactants if any, and in what concentration, remain unconsumed?

Calcium and Blood Pressure Does increasing the amount of calcium in our diet reduce blood pressure?...

Calcium and Blood Pressure Does increasing the amount of calcium in our diet reduce blood pressure? Examination of a large sample of people revealed a relationship between calcium intake and blood pressure. The relationship was strongest for black men. Such observational studies do not establish causation. Researchers therefore designed a randomized comparative experiment. The subjects were 12 healthy black men who volunteered to take part in the experiment. They were randomly assigned to two groups: 10 of the men received a calcium supplement for 12 weeks, while the control group of 11 men received a placebo pill that looked identical. The experiment was double-blind. The response variable is the decrease in systolic (top number) blood pressure for subject after 12 weeks, in millimeters of mercury.

An increase appears as a negative response here are the data:

Group 1 (calcium): 7 -4 18 17 -3 -5 1 10 11 -2

Group 2 (placebo); -1 12 -1 -3 3 -5 5 2 -11 -1 -3

Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that a calcium supplement reduces blood pressure more than a placebo?

Carry out an appropriate test to support your answer.

1.       Write the net ionic equation for each of the reactions studied.

2.       Use the table of heats of formation in your textbook to calculate the standard value for the first and second experiments

3.       For the first experiment, determine your experimental error and the percentage error for this experiment.

4.       Within experimental error, how did dilution in the second experiment effect the heat of reaction per mole of water produced? Should the two values be the same or different?

5.       Were the heats of reaction per mole or reactants different for the strong acid/strong base, weak acid/strong base, weak acid/weak base reactions? Which had the highest heat of reaction? Which had the lowest? What conclusions can you make from these values? Why might the values be different from each other?

Some of the standard enthalpy values do not appear in the textbook guide. How do I find the value for the compounds if they are not in the correct state in the book.
