The initial concentration of hydroiodic acid is 100 mmol/L but after 500 s it is 17 mmol/L. What is the rate? (note the products of this reaction are hydrogen and iodine gas)

The following initial rate data was collected for the reaction, A + 2B \longrightarrow products

B. Find the rate constant

When cyclopropane is heated to 500 ^\circC it changes to propene. The following data was obtained from experiment:

Confirm that the reaction is 1st order and calculate the rate constant.

An isotope of phosphorous, 32^{32}P, is radioactive and undergoes beta decay with a half life of 14.3 days. How long would it take for 99% of a sample of this isotope to decay?

For a given reaction, the reaction rate exactly doubles when the temperature is raised from 293 K to 304 K. Calculate the activation energy.
