$$\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline \text { Time (Hours) } & {[\mathrm{A}] M} \\\ \hline 0 & {0.40} \\ \hline 1 & {0.20} \\ \hline 2 & {0.10} \\ \hline 3 & {0.05} \\ \hline\end{array}$$ Reactant A underwent a decomposition reaction. The concentration of A was measured periodically and recorded in the chart above. Based on the data in the chart, which of the following is the rate law for the reaction? (A) Rate \(=k[\mathrm{A}]\) (B) Rate \(=k[\mathrm{A}]^{2}\) (C) Rate \(=2 k[\mathrm{A}]\) (D) Rate \(=\frac{1}{2} k[\mathrm{A}]\)
Questions 45-48 refer to the following. Inside a calorimeter, 100.0 \(\mathrm{mL}\) of 1.0 \(\mathrm{M}\) hydrocyanic acid (HCN), a weak acid, and 100.0 \(\mathrm{mL}\) of 0.50 \(\mathrm{M}\) sodium hydroxide are mixed. The temperature of the mixture rises from \(21.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to \(28.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) . The specific heat of the mixture is approximately \(4.2 \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{g}^{\circ} \mathrm{C},\) and the density is identical to that of water. What is the approximate amount of heat released during the reaction? \(\begin{array}{ll}{\text { (A) }} & {1.5 \mathrm{kJ}} \\ {\text { (B) }} & {2.9 \mathrm{kJ}} \\ {\text { (C) }} & {5.9 \mathrm{kJ}} \\ {\text { (D) }} & {11.8 \mathrm{kJ}}\end{array}\)
Nitrogen’s electronegativity value is between those of phosphorus and oxygen. Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between the three values? (A) The value for nitrogen is less than that of phosphorus because nitrogen is larger, but greater than that of oxygen because nitrogen has a greater effective nuclear charge. (B) The value for nitrogen is less than that of phosphorus because nitrogen has fewer protons, but greater than that of oxygen because nitrogen has fewer valence electrons. (C) The value for nitrogen is greater than that of phosphorus because nitrogen has fewer electrons, but less than that of oxygen because nitrogen is smaller. (D) The value for nitrogen is greater than that of phosphorus because nitrogen is smaller, but less than that of oxygen because nitrogen has a smaller effective nuclear charge.
When calcium chloride \(\left(\mathrm{CaCl}_{2}\right)\) dissolves in water, the temperature of the water increases dramatically. During this reaction, heat transfers from (A) the reactants to the products (B) the reactants to the system (C) the system to the surroundings (D) the products to the surroundings
\(\mathrm{PCl}_{3}(g)+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(g) \rightarrow \mathrm{PCl}_{5}(g) \Delta H=-92.5 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{mol}\) In which of the following ways could the reaction above be manipulated to create more product? (A) Decreasing the concentration of \(\mathrm{PCl}_{3}\) (B) Increasing the pressure (C) Increasing the temperature (D) None of the above
