Question:
(a) The reaction of cis-[PtMe2(Me2SO)(PPh3)] with pyridine leads to cis-[PtMe2(py)(PPh3)] and the rate of reaction shows no dependence on the concentration of pyridine. At 298 K, the value of ΔS‡ is 24 JK−1 mol−1. Comment on these data.
(b) For the reaction:
rate constants for X = Cl− and I− are 6:0 × 105 and 3:0 × 106 dm3 mol−1 s−1, respectively. Suggest how the reactions proceed and state which step in the reaction is the rate-determining one. Comment on why the rate constants for X− = Cl− and I− differ.

As a Business Management graduate from Moi University, I had the opportunity to work as a tutor for undergraduate students in the same field. This experience allowed me to apply the theoretical knowledge I had gained in a practical setting, while also honing my teaching and communication skills.
As a tutor, I was responsible for conducting tutorial sessions, grading assignments and exams, and providing feedback and support to my students. I also assisted with the preparation of course materials and collaborated with other tutors and professors to ensure consistency in teaching and assessment.
