Choose all that apply. In Experiment 4, we use a mixture of 50% water and 50% isopropyl alcohol as the solvent. Why do we use this mixture rather than using pure water as the solvent? The isopropyl alcohol is needed to act as a catalyst for the reaction to occur. There would be too much of a reactant that it would distort the reaction rate. t-butyl chloride is has low solubility in pure water. The hydrolysis reaction would occur too quickly in pure water to have good measurements for analysis. The isopropyl alcohol is necessary for the reaction to occur.

Based on the theory of particles and collisions between molecules, explain the effect that there will be a decrease in temperature, a decrease in the pressure of the reagents and a increasing the contact area over the rate of a chemical reaction.
11) Explain fully using the collision theory. How the rate of reaction will change due to the partial evaporation of the solvent from the first reagent, before the addition of the second reagent? CCALE of 66001 Clas
Please provide a reason as to why it is different from a kinetic reaction. I am confused with this. Thank you for your help!
Using the concept of collisions and molecular motion, explain why mixing a reaction mixture can speed up the rate of reaction.
Match the descriptions to the appropriate term. Rate of reaction Rate law symbolized as k Answer Bank can have different units, such as molarity per second (M/s), inverse seconds (s-¹), or inverse molarity-seconds (M-¹. s-¹); depending on the reaction order a formula that relates reactant concentration to reaction rate Rate constant always has units of amount per time (i.e., molarity per second, M/s, or molarity per minute, M/min)
What kind of reaction is an 'Grignard reaction'? Also What is the critical intermediate that can be isolated?
Match the following descriptions to the appropriate term. Rate of reaction Rate law Rate constant Always has units of amount per time (e.g., M/s or M/min). Can have difurent unts Such as Ms, sor M depending on the reaction order. A formula that relates reactant concentration to reaction rate.

2 Chlorine, 2 bromine and sometimes 2 iodine add to a double bond to form a vicinal dihalide. The intermediate is a three - membered ring called........ Stereoselectivity is an............. addition of halides.
1. What are the corresponding values of a and b, and the identity of A and X? See picture 2. Which statement/s about reactants with a reaction order of zero (0) is/are true? The graph of its concentration vs. the rate of reaction is parallel to the x-axis. An increase in its concentration will not increase the rate of reaction. The rate of reaction does not change even if the reactant is removed completely from the solution.
Similar to the chlorination of benzene with Cl2/FeCl3, the iodination of benzene with ICl can be catalyzed with FeCl3, which bonds to the Cl to make a Lewis acid-base complex. Briefly explain why FeCl3 accelerates the rate of the reaction. HINT: The rate of a reaction is determined by the slowest step, and accelerating the slow step will accelerate the overall reaction rate – think about what the slow step is in the halogenation of benzene.
