Reading a Reaction After Warm-Up

Base your answers on the information provided and your knowledge of chemistry. Use the 2025 Chemistry Reference Tables as needed.

A display runs the same gas-forming model reaction twice. Both runs use the same starting amounts and mixing method. P starts at 35 °C and remains there. Q starts at 20 °C and warms to 35 °C at 20 s. Q then stays at 35 °C. Neither run exhausts a reactant during the graph.

Graph at 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 seconds. Trial P forms 0, 4, 9, 14 and 19 product units. Trial Q forms 0, 1, 3, 8 and 13 units.

Question 1

In which listed interval do both trials first form the same amount of new product?

  1. 0 to 10 s
  2. 10 to 20 s
  3. 20 to 30 s
  4. The amounts differ in all three intervals.

Question 2

Calculate the average rate of product formation in each trial from 0 to 20 s.

Question 3

A student looks at the product amounts at 40 s and says Q is still forming product more slowly from 30 to 40 s. Use the graph to evaluate the claim.

The class now wants to separate the effect of starting temperature from any difference in how the two runs were measured.

Question 4

Describe a repeat that checks whether the early rate gap disappears when both reactions begin at 35 °C. State what to measure.
