Rate = - [A] = k[A]n

Rate = - [N2O5] = k[N2O5]n

k is rate constant for this reaction at this temperature and pressure
n is the rate order
Exp # [2N2O5] (mol/L) Time (s) Rate (mol/Ls)

rate2 = [N2O5]2 = 0.88 = 2 = 5.4x10-4 = 2 also
rate8 [N2O5]8 0.44 2.7x10-4
Note that the reaction rate at [N2O5] = 0.88M is twice that at [N2O5] = 0.44M
A doubling of concentration is a doubling of rate in a first order reaction.
2(rate) = 2[N2O5]1
Example 2:
NH4+(aq) + NO2
-(aq) N2 (g) + H2O (l)
Exp # [NH4]+(mol/L) [NO2]-(mol/L) Rate (M/s)
1 0.100M 0.005M 1.35x10-7
2 0.100M 0.010M 2.70x10-7
3 0.200M 0.010M 5.40x10-7
NH4 (aq) + NO2 (aq) N2 (g) + H2O (l)
General Rate Law: Rate = k[NH4+]n[NO2
-]m
Rate relationship of appearance & disappearance
Rate = -[NH4+] = -[NO2

t t t t
If we examine data from experiments 2 and 3 where the [NO2
-] does not change, then any change in rate must be caused by [NH4
+].
A doubling in concentration caused a doubling in rate.
So, first order in terms of [NH4+].
Exp # [NH4+] (mol/L) [NO2
-] (mol/L) Rate (M/s)
1 0.100M 0.005M 1.35x10-7
2 0.100M 0.010M 2.70x10-7
3 0.200M 0.010M 5.40x10-7
If you need to see the math, then:
Rate3 = 5.40x10-7 M/s = k(0.200M)n (0.01M)m
Rate2 = 2.70x10-7 M/s = k(0.100M)n (0.01M)m
So,
Rate3 = 5.40x10-7 M/s = k(0.200M)n (0.01M)m
Rate2 = 2.70x10-7 M/s = k(0.100M)n (0.01M)m
= (0.200M)n = 2.00 = (2.00)n so n=1 First order
(0.100M)n
If we examine data from experiments 1 and 2 where the [NH4
+]. does not change, then any change in rate must be caused by [NO2
-] .
A doubling in concentration caused a doubling in rate.
So, first order in terms of [NO2-] .
Exp # [NH4+] (mol/L) [NO2
-] (mol/L) Rate (M/s)
1 0.100M 0.005M 1.35x10-7
2 0.100M 0.010M 2.70x10-7
3 0.200M 0.010M 5.40x10-7
If you need to see the math, then:
Rate2 = 2.70x10-7 M/s = k(0.100M)n (0.01M)m
Rate1 = 1.35x10-7 M/s = k(0.100M)n (0.005M)m
So,
Rate2 = 2.70x10-7 M/s = k(0.100M)n (0.01M)m
Rate1 1.35x10-7 M/s k(0.100M)n (0.005M)m
= (0. 010M)n = 2.00 = (2.00)m so n=1 First order
(0.005M)n
The rate law is first order for both [NH4+] and
[NO2-] . Note that it is merely coincidence
that n and m have the same values as the stoichiometric coefficients
The overall reaction order is the sum of the n and m orders. n+m=2. The reaction is second order overall. The value of k can now be determined using any of the experimental data.
General Rate Law: Rate = k[NH4+]1[NO2
-]1
Exp # [NH4+] (mol/L) [NO2
-] (mol/L) Rate (M/s)
1 0.100M 0.005M 1.35x10-7
NH4+ (aq) + NO2
- (aq) N2 (g) + H2O (l)
General Rate Law: Rate = k[NH4+]1[NO2
-]1
Rate1 = 1.35x10-7 M/s = k(0.100M)n (0.005M)m
k = 1.35x10-7 M/s = 2.7x10-4 L/mol s
(0.100M)(0.005M)
Now, we can calculate the rate for ANY combination of these reactants at this temperature and pressure. THAT IS POWER!
Rate = 2.7x10-4 L/mol s[NH4+]1[NO2
-]1
General Rate Law:
Rate = k[NH4+]1[NO2
-]1
