Based on the information in the data table and your graph, is there an optimum temperature for catalase that makes it the most productive in terms of reaction rate? If so, what is the temperature? At what temperature, does the rate of the reaction decrease? Explain why.arrow_forwardAlthough CH4 reacts with Cl2 to form CH3Cl and HCl, the corresponding reaction of CH4 with I2 does not occur at an appreciable rate, even though the I–I bond is much weaker than the Cl–Cl bond. Explain why this is so.arrow_forward
- The following reaction proceeds at a rate such that 4 mole of AA is consumed per minute. Given this, how many moles of CC are produced per minute? 2A+2B→4Carrow_forwardThe reactions drawn show possible arrow pushing mechanisms. Considering what you know about arrow pushing mechanisms, identify which show valid arrow pushing. Select the valid mechanisms.

- The rate law for the reaction H2(g) + 2NO(g) → N2O(g) + H2O(g) was experimentally determined to be rate = k [NO]2 [H2]. Which of the following statements is false? Doubling the concentrations of both reactants would double the reaction rate Tripling H2 concentration would triple the reaction rate The overall reaction order is 3 Decreasing NO concentration by half would decrease the reaction rate 4 timesarrow_forwardwrite the mechanism (synthesis) of this reaction C NC NCarrow_forwardAssuming that the mechanism for the hydrogenation of C2H4 given in Section 11-7 is correct, would you predict that the product of the reaction of C2H4. with D2 would be CH2DCH2D or CHD2CH3? How could the reaction of C2H4 with D2 be used to confirm the mechanism for the hydrogenation of C2H4 given in Section 11-7?arrow_forward
