Answer: Boyle's law
Explanation: It states that pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume of a gas at constant temperature.
∝
at constant temperature
or If the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases if the temperature is unchanged and If the pressure of gas is increased, the volume decreases if the temperature is unchanged.
Rate law for the given 2nd order reaction is:
Rate = k[a]2
Given data:
rate constant k = 0.150 m-1s-1
initial concentration, [a] = 0.250 M
reaction time, t = 5.00 min = 5.00 min * 60 s/s = 300 s
To determine:
Concentration at time t = 300 s i.e.
Calculations:
The second order rate equation is:
substituting for k,t and [a] we get:
1/[a]t = 0.150 M-1s-1 * 300 s + 1/[0.250]M
1/[a]t = 49 M-1
[a]t = 1/49 M-1 = 0.0204 M
Hence the concentration of 'a' after t = 5min is 0.020 M
