The bromination of acetone that occurs in acid solution is represented by this equation. CH_3COCH_3(aq)+Br_2(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COCH_2Br(aq)+H^+(aq)+Br^-(aq). These kinetic data were obtained for given reaction concentrations.

| | | | Initial rate, disappearance of , | |---|---|---|---| | 0.30 | 0.05 | 0.05 | | | 0.30 | 0.10 | 0.05 | | | 0.30 | 0.10 | 0.10 | | | 0.40 | 0.05 | 0.20 | |

Based on these data, the rate equation is:

Answer: (D)

Solution

Comparing rows 1 and 2 (only doubled, rate unchanged) shows order 0 in ; comparing rows 2 and 3 (only doubled, rate roughly
