The reaction X + Y → products was studied using the method of initial rates. The initial rate of consumption of X was measured in three different experiments. Data are provided below.

Expt [X]0(in mol L-1 [Y]0(in mol L-1 Initial Rate(in mol L-1 min-1)

1 0.400 0.500 5.962

2 0.800 0.500 2.981

3 0.400 1.50 17.89

What is the order of the reaction with respect to X?      (Enter an integer.)

What is the order of the reaction with respect to Y?      (Enter an integer.) 

Specify the units of k by giving the appropriate powers of mol, L and min:

The power of mol is      (Enter an integer.)

The power of L is     (Enter an integer.)

The power of min is     (Enter an integer.)

What is the value of k when concentrations and time are expressed in mol L-1 and min, respectively?     (Enter a number with no units, accurate to 3 significant figures.)
