Step 1:H2+IBr→HI+HBr(slow) Step 2:HI+IBr→I2+HBr(fast) A proposed mechanism for the reaction H2+2IBr→I2+2HBr is shown above. Two experiments were performed at the same temperature but with different initial concentrations. Based on this information, which of the following statements is correct?

The rate of the reaction will undergo a 4-fold increase in the experiment in which the initial concentrations of both H2 and IBr were doubled.

Two samples of Mg(s) of equal mass were placed in equal amounts of HCI(aq) contained in two separate reaction vessels. Particle representations of the mixing of Mg(s) and HCI(aq) in the two reaction vessels are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 above. Water molecules are not included in the particle representations. Which of the reactions will initially proceed faster, and why?

The reaction in Figure 2, because more Mg atoms are exposed to HCI(aq) in Figure 2 than in Figure 1

The hydrolysis of sucrose is represented by the chemical equation above. This reaction is extremely slow in aqueous solution. However, when sucrase is added as shown in the diagram, the rate of the reaction is about 6,000,000 times faster. Based on this information, which of the following best explains the large increase in the rate of hydrolysis that occurs with the addition of sucrase?

The reaction proceeds through a different reaction path with a lower activation energy in which the sucrase-sucrose complex is formed as an intermediate.

2X+Y2→X2Y2 A chemist is studying the reaction between the gaseous chemical species X and Y2, represented by the equation above. Initial rates of reaction are measured at various concentrations of reactants. The results are recorded in the following table. A second chemist repeated the three experiments and observed that the reaction rates were considerably greater than those measured by the first chemist even though the concentrations of the reactants and the temperature in the laboratory were the same as they were for the first chemist. Which of the following is the best pairing of a claim about a most likely cause for the greater rates measured by the second chemist and a valid justification for that claim?

The second chemist must have added a catalyst for the reaction, thus providing a different reaction pathway for the reactant particles to react with an activation energy that was lower than that of the uncatalyzed reaction in the first chemist's experiments.

A 0.35 g sample of Li(s) is placed in an Erlenmeyer flask containing 100 mL of water at 25°C. A balloon is placed over the mouth of the flask to collect the hydrogen gas that is generated. After all of the Li(s) has reacted with H2O(l), the solution in the flask is added to a clean, dry buret and used to titrate an aqueous solution of a monoprotic acid. The pH curve for this titration is shown in the diagram below Which of the following changes will most likely increase the rate of reaction between Li(s) and water?

Using a 0.35 g sample of Li(s) cut into small pieces
