Iodine monochloride, ICl, is a yellow-brown gas. It reacts with hydrogen gas under certain conditions as shown. 2ICl + H22HCl + I2Experiments are performed using different starting concentrations of ICl and H2. The initial rate of each reaction is measured. The following results are obtained. experiment [ICl ] / mol dm–3 [H2] / mol dm–3 relative rate of reaction 4.00 × 10–3 4.00 × 10–3 1.00 4.00 × 10–3 7.00 × 10–3 1.75 4.00 × 10–3 1.00 × 10–2 2.50 5.00 × 10–3 8.00 × 10–3 2.50 7.00 × 10–3 8.00 × 10–3 3.50 Identify a change, taking place in the reaction mixture, that would enable measurements of the rate of this reaction to be made. Use the data in the table to show that the reaction is first order with respect to H2. Use the data in the table to show that the reaction is first order with respect to ICl . Complete the rate equation for the reaction between ICl and H2. rate = Use experiment3 to calculate a numerical value for the rate constant, k. k = The reaction 2ICl + H22HCl + I2is first order with respect to ICl and first order with respect to H2. Suggest a mechanism for this reaction. You should assume ● the mechanism has two steps, ● the first step is much slower than the second step. first step second step An alternative method is used to show that the reaction is first order with respect to H2. This method uses a large excess of ICl and measures how the concentration of H2varies with time. Describe two ways of using these results to show the reaction is first order with respect to H2concentration. Explain the reason for using a large excess of ICl . A chemical reaction may be speeded up by the presence of a catalyst. Explain why a catalyst increases the rate of a chemical reaction.

Calcitriol is a steroid hormone found in human blood. HO HO OH calcitriol Give the number of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohol groups in one molecule of calcitriol. primary secondary tertiary Give the number of chiral carbon atoms in one molecule of calcitriol. Calcitriol shows geometrical isomerism. Give the number of geometrical isomers of calcitriol, including calcitriol. A sample of calcitriol is treated with an excess of hot, concentrated, acidified potassium manganate(. There are three different carbon‑containing products of this reaction. One of these three products, X, is shown. O O X O O Predict the number of peaks in the carbon-13 NMR spectrum of X. For the carbon‑13 NMR spectrum of X, state the expected chemical shift ranges (δ) of the peaks predicted in and the number of peaks in each range. Predict the number of peaks this compound would show in its proton NMR spectrum. For each of the peaks in the proton NMR spectrum you have identified in give the expected splitting pattern. Explain your reasoning. In addition to the product shown in , two other carbon-containing products are formed when a sample of calcitriol is treated with an excess of hot, concentrated, acidified potassiummanganate(. Of these two other carbon-containing products, identify the product with the smaller molecular mass. Explain how this product is formed. Of these two other carbon-containing products, identify the product with the larger molecular mass by drawing its skeletal formula in the space below.
