5.2 Introduction to Rate Law
A student investigates the catalytic removal of a hypothetical dissolved contaminant, \(\text{R(aq)}\), by \(\text{H}_2\text{O}_2\text{(aq)}\). The temperature is maintained at \(298\ \text{K}\), and the same catalyst surface area is used in each trial. The student obtains the following initial-rate data.
Which of the following gives both the differential rate law and the units of the rate constant, \(k\), that are consistent with the data?
| Trial | \([\text{R}]\) \((\text{M})\) | \([\text{H}_2\text{O}_2]\) \((\text{M})\) | Initial disappearance rate of \(\text{R}\) \((\text{M}\,\text{s}^{-1})\) |
|---|---|---|---|
| \(1\) | \(0.010\) | \(0.010\) | \(5.0\times10^{-5}\) |
| \(2\) | \(0.040\) | \(0.010\) | \(1.0\times10^{-4}\) |
| \(3\) | \(0.010\) | \(0.040\) | \(4.0\times10^{-4}\) |
| \(4\) | \(0.040\) | \(0.040\) | \(8.0\times10^{-4}\) |
Which of the following gives both the differential rate law and the units of the rate constant, \(k\), that are consistent with the data?
