Trimethylamine and chlorine dioxide react in water in an electron transfer reaction to form the trimethylamine cation and chlorite ion: (CH3)3N(aq)+ClO−2(aq)+H2O(l)→(CH3)3NH+(aq)+ClO−2(aq)+OH−(aq) Initial rate data obtained at 23 ∘C are listed in the following table:
Part B What is the rate constant? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Part C What would be the initial rate in an experiment with initial concentrations [ (CH3) 3N]=4.2×10−2M and [ClO2]=3.4×10−2M? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
