0 1 Propanone reacts with bromine in alkaline conditions.
CH3COCH3 + Br2 + OH– ⟶ CH3COCH2Br + Br – + H2O
The rate equation for this reaction is
Rate = k [CH3COCH3] [OH–]
0 1 . 1 Sketch a graph on the axes provided to show how, at constant temperature, the
concentration of bromine changes during this reaction.
