Need Help on how to find the answers. I don't think mine are right.

A student prepared the following mixtures and measured the time each took to react. Calculate the average time for each mixture (in seconds).

Mixture

Vol. of 4.0 M acetone (mL)

Vol. of 1.0 M HCl (mL)

Vol. of 0.0050 M I2 (mL)

Vol. of H2O (mL)

Time for Trial 1

Time for Trial 2

To complete the following table:

Determine the initial concentration (molarity) of each reagent using the equation:

The Mstock and Vstock for each reagent are given in problem 1. The total volume is 50 mL for each trial.

Calculate the rate of the reaction using the equation

[Acetone], M

[H+], M

[I2]0, M

Determine the rate law by finding the orders of the reaction (m, n, and p).

Rate = k[acetone]m[H+]n[I2]p

Use the rate law determined in problem 3 to calculate the rate constant, k for each mixture. Find the average rate constant.

We will now consider reaction mixture 5. Calculate the molar concentrations of each reactant as done in problem 2.

4.0 M Acetone

1.0 M HCl

0.0050 M I2

Concentration (M)

--------------

Use the concentrations for Mixture 5 you just calculated, along with the orders of the reaction (m, n, and p, from problem 3), and the average rate constant (problem 4), to solve Eq. 2 for rate. This is a prediction of how long it will take for the I2 color to disappear from your mixture.

Rate = k[acetone]m[H+]n[I2]p

Predicted Rate:____________________

To find the predicted time, recall. Use the rate from problem 5 and the molar concentration of [I2]0 from problem 5 to solve for the predicted time.
