HOMEWORK 2 1. A reaction 3 A 2 P + 3 Q + 4 R has a first-order rate law with a half-life of 8 min.

. (a) How long will the it take for the total pressure to become twice the pressure at the start of the reaction? (b) How many times bigger is the pressure of the system 12 min after the reaction has started compared to the pressure at the beginning of the reaction? 2. The reaction mechanism

involves an intermediate A. Deduce the rate law for the reaction using (a) the preequilibrium method and (b) the steady-state approximation.
