Why awe elementary reactions involving three or more reactants very uncommon?
Consider a reaction of the type aA products, in which the rate law is found to he rate = k[A]3 (termolecular reactions are improbable but possible). If the first half-tife of the reaction is found to he 40. s, what is the time for the second half-life? Hint: Using your calculus knowledge, derive the integrated rate law from the differential rate law for a tennolecular reaction: Rate=d[A]dt=k[A]3

The acid-catalyzed iodination of acetone CH3COCH3(aq) + I2(aq) CH3COCH2I(aq) + HI(aq) is a common laboratory experiment used in general chemistry courses to teach the method of initial rates. The reaction is followed spectrophotometrically by the disappearance of the color of iodine in the solution. The following data (J. P. Birk and D. L Walters, Journal of Chemical Education, Vol. 69, p. 585, 1992) were collected at 23 C for this reaction. Determine the rate law for this reaction.
