A student is investigating different experimental techniques to continuously monitor the rates of four different reactions.

Reaction Monitoring Methods

Which of the following reactions is paired with an unsuitable continuous monitoring method?

CH3COCH3(aq)+I2(aq)→H+CH3COCH2I(aq)+H+(aq)+I−(aq)\text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3(\text{aq}) + \text{I}_2(\text{aq}) \xrightarrow{\text{H}^+} \text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_2\text{I}(\text{aq}) + \text{H}^+(\text{aq}) + \text{I}^-(\text{aq})CH3​COCH3​(aq)+I2​(aq)H+​CH3​COCH2​I(aq)+H+(aq)+I−(aq) monitored using colorimetry

CH3CH2Br(l)+OH−(aq)→CH3CH2OH(aq)+Br−(aq)\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{Br}(\text{l}) + \text{OH}^-(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{OH}(\text{aq}) + \text{Br}^-(\text{aq})CH3​CH2​Br(l)+OH−(aq)→CH3​CH2​OH(aq)+Br−(aq) monitored using a pH probe

Zn(s)+H2SO4(aq)→ZnSO4(aq)+H2(g)\text{Zn}(\text{s}) + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4(\text{aq}) \rightarrow \text{ZnSO}_4(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2(\text{g})Zn(s)+H2​SO4​(aq)→ZnSO4​(aq)+H2​(g) monitored using Method 1 (Mass Loss)

CH3CH2Cl(l)+H2O(l)→CH3CH2OH(aq)+H+(aq)+Cl−(aq)\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{Cl}(\text{l}) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{l}) \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{OH}(\text{aq}) + \text{H}^+(\text{aq}) + \text{Cl}^-(\text{aq})CH3​CH2​Cl(l)+H2​O(l)→CH3​CH2​OH(aq)+H+(aq)+Cl−(aq) monitored using electrical conductivity
