Five 5.00ml samples of 1.0 M reagent B were poured into five vessels containing 5.00ml of A, each having the concentration tabulated below. The temperature was 25 degrees Celsius and all other conditions were constant. The initial rates are also tabulated. Another set of experiments was performed in which the concentration of B was varied- these results are also tabulated.
conc A Conc B Initial Rate Conc A Conc B Initial Rate
1.0 1.0 0.012 1.0 1.0 0.012
2.0 1.0 0.023 1.0 2.0 0.048
4.0 1.0 0.049 1.0 4.0 0.190
8.0 1.0 0.096 1.0 8.0 0.760
16.0 1.0 0.190 1.0 16.0 3.0
Given this information, what is the order of reaction with respect to A and with respect to B? What is the value of the rate constant?
