Test: AP Chemistry
| 1. |
A chemistry student is trying to identify the reaction order for a reaction based on her interpretation of the above graph. The student identifies the reaction as a first-order reaction. Is this student correct in their conclusion? Why? |
Yes. Regardless of the order of the reaction, a graph of the natural logarithm of the concentration of a reactant versus time will always yield a straight line with a negative slope.
No. A graph of the natural logarithm of the concentration of a reactant versus time yields a straight line with a negative slope for a second-order reaction.
Yes. A graph of the natural logarithm of the concentration of a reactant versus time yields a straight line with a negative slope for a first-order reaction.
Additional information is necessary in order to determine whether the graph corresponds to a first-order reaction.
No. A graph of the natural logarithm of the concentration of a reactant versus time yields a straight line with a negative slope for a zeroth-order reaction.
