Which of the following correctly represents the chemical equation for the reaction involving acetone and bromine in aqueous solution?

1. CH3COCH3(aq) + Br2(aq) -> CH3COCH2Br(aq) + H+(aq) + Br−(aq)
2. This process is self-catalyzed and requires intricate calculations for concentration terms.
3. Rate of bromine consumption in M s^−1
4. Starting concentration of acetone in M

Correct answer: CH3COCH3(aq) + Br2(aq) -> CH3COCH2Br(aq) + H+(aq) + Br−(aq)

Solution

Option A correctly represents the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. The other options are unrelated to the question's focus on rewriting the reaction.
