Input interpretation
H_2SO_4 sulfuric acid + BaO_2 barium peroxide ⟶ H_2O water + BaSO_4 barium sulfate + O_3 ozone
Balanced equation
Balance the chemical equation algebraically: H_2SO_4 + BaO_2 ⟶ H_2O + BaSO_4 + O_3 Add stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, to the reactants and products: c_1 H_2SO_4 + c_2 BaO_2 ⟶ c_3 H_2O + c_4 BaSO_4 + c_5 O_3 Set the number of atoms in the reactants equal to the number of atoms in the products for H, O, S and Ba: H: | 2 c_1 = 2 c_3 O: | 4 c_1 + 2 c_2 = c_3 + 4 c_4 + 3 c_5 S: | c_1 = c_4 Ba: | c_2 = c_4 Since the coefficients are relative quantities and underdetermined, choose a coefficient to set arbitrarily. To keep the coefficients small, the arbitrary value is ordinarily one. For instance, set c_5 = 1 and solve the system of equations for the remaining coefficients: c_1 = 3 c_2 = 3 c_3 = 3 c_4 = 3 c_5 = 1 Substitute the coefficients into the chemical reaction to obtain the balanced equation: Answer: | | 3 H_2SO_4 + 3 BaO_2 ⟶ 3 H_2O + 3 BaSO_4 + O_3

Write the balanced chemical equation: 3 H_2SO_4 + 3 BaO_2 ⟶ 3 H_2O + 3 BaSO_4 + O_3 Assign stoichiometric numbers, ν_i, using the stoichiometric coefficients, c_i, from the balanced chemical equation in the following manner: ν_i = -c_i for reactants and ν_i = c_i for products: chemical species | c_i | ν_i H_2SO_4 | 3 | -3 BaO_2 | 3 | -3 H_2O | 3 | 3 BaSO_4 | 3 | 3 O_3 | 1 | 1 The rate term for each chemical species, B_i, is 1/ν_i(Δ[B_i])/(Δt) where [B_i] is the amount concentration and t is time: chemical species | c_i | ν_i | rate term H_2SO_4 | 3 | -3 | -1/3 (Δ[H2SO4])/(Δt) BaO_2 | 3 | -3 | -1/3 (Δ[BaO2])/(Δt) H_2O | 3 | 3 | 1/3 (Δ[H2O])/(Δt) BaSO_4 | 3 | 3 | 1/3 (Δ[BaSO4])/(Δt) O_3 | 1 | 1 | (Δ[O3])/(Δt) (for infinitesimal rate of change, replace Δ with d) Set the rate terms equal to each other to arrive at the rate expression: Answer: | | rate = -1/3 (Δ[H2SO4])/(Δt) = -1/3 (Δ[BaO2])/(Δt) = 1/3 (Δ[H2O])/(Δt) = 1/3 (Δ[BaSO4])/(Δt) = (Δ[O3])/(Δt) (assuming constant volume and no accumulation of intermediates or side products)
