Answer 11

s^-1

Question 12

The rate constant (k)

Answer 12

Question 13

Units for rate constant

Answer 13

Question 14

K value changes with

Answer 14

Temperature

Question 15

Initial rates table

Answer 15

• Using two experiments with only one change in reactants concentration. Order of a single reactant can be calculated by observing the change in rate
• May have to ‘create’ and experiment on a new row to be able to work out the orders
  E.g double one reactant (with all others constant) that is first order, rate will double
• To find k sub in values (from the first row of the table is easiest) into the overall rate equation
