Nitrogen dioxide decomposes at 300°C via a second-order process to produce nitrogen monoxide and oxygen according to the followi
ng chemical equation. 2 NO2(g) → 2 NO(g) + O2(g). A sample of NO2(g) is initially placed in a 2.50-L reaction vessel at 300°C. If the half-life and the rate constant at 300°C are 22 seconds and 0.54 M-1 s-1, respectively, how many moles of NO2 were in the original sample?
