Question

The bromination of acetone that occurs in acid solution is represented by this equation: CH3COCH3(aq)+Br2(aq)CH3COCH2Br(aq)+H+(aq)+Br(aq)\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3(aq) + \text{Br}_2(aq) \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_2\text{Br}(aq) + \text{H}^+(aq) + \text{Br}^-(aq) These kinetic data were obtained for given reaction concentrations:

| [CH3COCH3][\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3] (M) | [Br2][\text{Br}_2] (M) | [H+][\text{H}^+] (M) | Initial rate, disappearance of Br2\text{Br}_2 (M s1\text{M s}^{-1}) | | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | | 0.300.30 | 0.050.05 | 0.050.05 | 5.7×1055.7 \times 10^{-5} | | 0.300.30 | 0.100.10 | 0.050.05 | 5.7×1055.7 \times 10^{-5} | | 0.300.30 | 0.100.10 | 0.100.10 | 1.2×1041.2 \times 10^{-4} | | 0.400.40 | 0.050.05 | 0.200.20 | 3.1×1043.1 \times 10^{-4} |

Based on these data, the rate equation is:

A

Rate=k[CH3COCH3][H+]\text{Rate} = k [\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3] [\text{H}^+]

B

Rate=k[CH3COCH3][Br2]\text{Rate} = k [\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3][\text{Br}_2]

C

Rate=k[CH3COCH3][Br2][H+]2\text{Rate} = k [\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3][\text{Br}_2][\text{H}^+]^2

D

Rate=k[CH3COCH3][Br2][H+]\text{Rate} = k [\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3][\text{Br}_2][\text{H}^+]
