Question:

At 620. K butadiene dimerizes at a moderate rate. The following data were obtained in an experiment involving this reaction:

a. Determine the order of the reaction in butadiene.
b. In how many seconds is the dimerization 1.0% complete?
c. In how many seconds is the dimerization 2.0% complete?
d. What is the half- life for the reaction if the initial concentration of butadiene is 0.0200 M?
e. Use the results from this problem and Exercise 32 to calculate the activation energy for the dimerization of butadiene.
