The hydrolysis of the sugar sucrose to the sugars glucose and fructose, C12H22O11+H2OC6H12O6+C6H12O6 follows a first-order rate equation for the disappearance of sucrose: Rate =k[C12H22O11] (The products of the reaction, glucose and fructose, have the same molecular formulas but differ in the arrangement of the atoms in their molecules.) (a) In neutral solution, k=2.11011s1 at 27 C and 8.51011s1 at 37 C. Determine the activation energy, the frequency factor, and the rate constant for this equation at 47 C (assuming the kinetics remain consistent with the Arrhenius equation at this temperature). (b) When a solution of sucrose with an initial concentration of 0.150 M reaches equilibrium, the concentration of sucrose is 1.65107M . How long will it take the solution to reach equilibrium at 27 C in the absence of a catalyst? Because the concentration of sucrose at equilibrium is so low, assume that the reaction is irreversible. (c) Why does assuming that the reaction is irreversible simplify the calculation in pan (b)?
Azomethane decomposes into nitrogen and ethane at high temperatures according to the following equation: (CH3)2N2(g)N2(g)+C2H6(g)The rate of the reaction is followed by monitoring the disappearance of the purple color due to iodine. The following data are obtained at a certain temperature. (a) By plotting the data, show that the reaction is first-order. (b) From the graph, determine k. (c) Using k, find the time (in hours) that it takes to decrease the concentration to 0.100 M. (d) Calculate the rate of the reaction when [ (CH3)2N2 ]=0.415M.

Consider the first-order decomposition reaction A+BCwhere A (circles) decomposes to B (triangles) and C (squares). Given the following boxes representing the reaction at t=2 minutes, fill in the boxes with products at the indicated time. Estimate the half-life of the reaction.
As with any drug, aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) must remain in the bloodstream long enough to be effective. Assume that the removal of aspirin from the bloodstream into the urine is a lirst-order reaction, with a half-life of about 3 hours. The instructions on an aspirin bottle say to take 1 or 2 tablets every 4 hours. If a person takes 2 aspirin tablets, how much aspirin remains in the bloodstream when it is time for the second dose? (A standard tablet contains 325 mg of aspirin.)
Consider a set of first-order consecutive reactions ABC. The rate constants are 8.4104s1 and 3.02105s1, respectively. Plot the concentrations of A, B, and C versus time, and determine the time necessary to produce the maximum amount of the intermediate product B.
