ers are exactly the values indicated. The pressure
in the first three containers is 1.0 atm. What is the
pressure in the container on the right?
(A) 3.0 atm
(B) 4.0 atm
(C) 1.1 atm

OCOOCS
- The diagram above shows the structure of mol-
ecules of CS 2 and COS. The boiling point of
COS is 223 K, and the boiling point of CS 2 is
319 K. Which of the following is the best expla-
nation of why the boiling point of CS 2 is higher?
(A) The molar mass of CS 2 is greater.
(B) COS has weaker covalent bonds than CS 2.
(C) Only CS 2 can form intermolecular dipole-
dipole forces.
(D) COS has stronger intermolecular forces
because it is polar and CS 2 is not.
Movable piston
CO(g) + Cl 2 (g)^ COCl 2 (g) ΔH = - 109 kJ
- The above equilibrium is established in a closed
system with a movable piston. After establish-
ing equilibrium, the piston is rapidly moved
up (pressure change). Which of the following
graphs best illustrates the rate of the reverse reac-
tion as the system returns to equilibrium?

2 I-(aq) + H 2 O 2 (aq) + 2 H+(aq) →
I 2 (aq) + 2 H 2 O(l)
The proposed mechanism for the above reaction is
as follows:
Step 1: H 2 O 2 (aq) + I-(aq) →
HOI(aq) + OH-(aq) (slow) k 1
Step 2: HOI(aq) + I-(aq) →
I 2 (aq) + OH-(aq) (fast) k 2
Step 3: 2 OH-(aq) + 2 H+(aq) →
2 H 2 O(l) (fast) k 3
