Chem Kinetics question

Recommended Posts

I don't quite understand how to find the rate constant when the information given is as follows:

 

 

Composition by volume of mixture / cm3

Initial rate

Experiment

1.00 mol dm–3
CH
3COCH3(aq)

Water

1.00 mol dm–3
H
+(aq)

5.00 × 10–3
mol dm
–3 I2 in KI

/ mol dm–3 s–1

1

10.0

60.0

10.0

20.0

4.96 × 10–6

2

10.0

50.0

10.0

30.0

5.04 × 10–6

3

5.0

65.0

10.0

20.0

2.47 × 10–6

4

10.0

65.0

5.0

20.0

2.51 × 10–6

 

I need the concentration, but there are variations of volumes in cm3. I don't know how those variation in volume will affect the concentration.

The rate equation is rate= k [CH3COCH3]^2 [H+]

Why is the concentration of CH3COCH3 and H0.1?

other than that, I know how to get the answer. please explain why their concentrations are 0.1 and how variations in volume affect the concentrations!

Thank you very much!!
