Step 1

Since the reaction is bimolecular, the rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of both reactants. Therefore, if you double the concentration of CHBr, the reaction rate will also double. So, the reaction rate would be 2 * 0.0030 M/s = Show more…

Thanks for your feedback!

I need help in working out this question, please! I am lost, and my chemistry book didn't help. Consider the single-step bimolecular reaction: CHBr + NaOH -> CHOH + NaBr When the concentrations of CHBr and NaOH are both 0.14 M, the reaction rate is 0.0030 M/s. What is the reaction rate if you double the concentration of CHBr? Reaction rate: M/s What is the reaction rate if you halve the concentration of NaOH? Reaction rate: M/s What is the reaction rate if you increase the concentrations of both CHBr and NaOH by a factor of 5? Reaction rate: M/s
