Individual Report Consider what would happen with a similar reaction, A(aq) + OH¯(aq) → B(aq), where the product B(aq) is the colored species, and A(aq) is colorless. To perform a similar experiment to the one you did for this lab by watching the absorption of species B as a function of time, using a large excess of OH(aq) again removes the dependence on the OH concentration and gives pseudo-fth order dependence. If you did, you might also expect to get one of the following curves, depending on the reaction order. Zeroth Order First Order Second Order t 'max Time The zeroth order curve is given by the equation t = k't. (8) The first order curve is given by the equation t = max (1 – e-k't). (9) The second order curve is t = max (1 (10) k'tmax+1, In these equations, max is the theoretical maximum concentration of the product and k' is again the pseudo rate constant equal to k[OH].
