I'm really confused?
2H2O2⟶2H2O+O2
Experiment no. c(H2O2) rate
1 14.45 3.35×10−3
2 28.90 6.65×10−3
3 57.80 13.35×10−3
So from previous parts of the question, I found the order of reaction (1st), the rate equation for the reaction (r=k[A]), the rate constant (2.3×10−4 s−1, which is correct according to the answers), and now I need to find the rate of decomposition of H2O2 when [H2O2] is exactly 10.0 mmol L−1.
I thought it's just 2.3×10−4×10.0, which is 2.3×10−3, but the answers provided is double that (so 4.6×10−3), so I must have gotten the rate equation wrong?
if it's r=2k[A], then why did I get k right in the first place?
