The decomposition of NOCl is second order.
2NOCl ----> 2NO + Cl2
The initial concentration of the reactant is 0.050 M. The rate constant equals 0.020 L mol^-1 s^-1, what will the concentration be after 45 minutes?

Respuesta :

The half life of the reaction is 7.8x 10⁴ s.

For a 2nd order reaction, the t1/2 = 1/k[Ao].

Half- life of this reaction:

T½ = 1/6.7x1/10⁴ × 0.20

T½ = 7.8x 10⁴ s

The rate law for this reaction = k[NOCl]2

What is rate law?

  • In chemistry, a rate law or rate equation for a reaction is an equation that relates the initial or forward reaction rate to reactant concentrations or pressures and constant parameters (normally rate coefficients and partial reaction orders).
  • Elementary (one-step) reactions and reaction steps have reaction orders equal to the stoichiometric coefficients for each reactant.
  • The overall reaction order, i.e. the sum of the stoichiometric coefficients of the reactants, is always equal to the molecular weight of the elementary reaction.
