Consider the following reaction.
A (g) + B (g) → C (g) + D (g)
*In one experiment the concentration of A (g) was monitored in the presence of a large excess of B (g) ( [B]o = 0.750 M ) .
Time (s) [A] (mol/L)
0.00 6.00 x 10-6
1.00 5.00 x 10-6
5.00 2.40 x 10-6
7.00 1.70 x 10-6
10.00 0.99 x 10-6
In a second experiment the concentration of B (g) was monitored in the presence of a large excess of A (g) ( [A]o = 1.50 M ) .
Time (s) [B] (mol/L)
0.00 1.00 x 10-4
0.50 0.84 x 10-4
1.00 0.70 x 10-4
2.00 0.49 x 10-4
3.00 0.34 x 10-4
