Please answer all questions on your scantron answer sheet to hand in. You may keep these
question sheets. Each question has the same value.
1. Consider the following reaction:
A (aq) + B (aq) C (g)
At 300 K ΔHºrxn = – 400 kJ/mol and ΔSºrxn = 400 J/K-mol. Given this data select the
TRUE answer below.
G = H – TS; a negative
A. The reaction is spontaneous and Suniv > 0. Hrxn (exothermic) and
B. The reaction is endothermic and it’s becoming more ordered. positive
Srxn (increasing entropy
C. The reaction is endothermic and Suniv > 0 of reaction) will always
produce a negative
D. The reaction is nonspontaneous and Suniv < 0. Grxn, which is
spontaneous and
E. The reaction is becoming disordered and Suniv < 0 satisfies the second law
of thermodynamics with
2. What is the melting point, C, for A, given ΔHºfusion = 15 kJ/mol and ΔSºfusion = 150 J/K-
mol.
A (s) A (l)
a) 373°C b) 298°C c) 100°C d) –100°C e) –173°C
Tfusion(melting )
Hfusion 15 kJ/mol 100 K; T (C) = 100 273 = 173 C Remember to
convert S to
Sfusion 0.15 kJ/K mol
match units on
3. From the thermodynamic data given below, calculate Srxn for the following reaction:
Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2HCl (aq) MgCl2 (aq) + 2H2O (l)
, 4. Consider the following generic reaction: A B, for which Keq = 0.08 at 100°C. Calculate
G°rxn for this reaction at 100°C? R = 8.314 J/K-mol
a) 7.8 kJ/mol b) 2.1 kJ/K•mol c) –2.1 kJ/K•mol d) –7.8 kJ/K•mol e) –10.8 kJ/K•mol
5. A certain reactant A follows first order kinetics with a half-life, t1/2, = 0.25 s. How long will
it take the initial concentration of A to be reduced to 12.5%?
a) 0.25 s b) 0.50 s c) 0.75 s d) 1.0 s e) 1.25 s
One half-life (0.25 s) takes A from 100% to 50%, the second half-life (0.5 s) cuts the amount of A to
25%. The third half-life (0.75 s) cuts 25% in half to 12.5%. So three half-lives = 0.75 s
6. With regard to kinetics, which of the following statements is (are) True?
I. Increasing the temperature decreases the rate constant k.
II. The addition of a catalyst increases the rate constant k.
III. Decreasing the activation energy barrier, Ea, increases the rate constant k.
A. I only (I) is FALSE as increasing the temperature increases
B. II only the rate of reaction and the rate constant.
(II) is TRUE as adding a catalyst increases the rate of
C. III only reaction and the rate constant.
(III) is TRUE as reducing the activation barrier (what
D.II and III only a catalyst does) increases the rate of reaction
and the rate constant.
E. All are True.
7. Consider the following reaction: A (aq) + B (aq) + C (aq) D (aq) + E (l)
Determine the rate law for this reaction using the data in the following table:
a) rate = k[A][B][C] [A]: exp #1 to #2, doubling [A] while leaving [B] and [C] the same leads to
b) rate = k[A][B] [A2] x Rate2 ; [0.4] x 0.12 ; 2 x 4 ; x = 2
[A ] Rate [0.2] 0.03
1 1
: exp #3 to #2, doubling [B] while leaving [A] and [C] the same leads to NO
: exp #1 to #4, tripling [C] while leaving [A] and [B] the same leads to a tr
The rate law based on this data is: rate = k[A]2[C]
