Answer:

The answer to the question is

The rate constant for the reaction is 1.056×10⁻³ M/s

Explanation:

To solve the question, e note that

For a zero order reaction, the rate law is given by

[A] = -k×t + [A]₀

This can be represented by the linear equation y = mx + c

Such that y = [A], m which is the gradient is = -k, and the intercept c = [A]₀

Therefore the rate constant k which is the gradient is given by

Gradient = \frac{[A]_{2} - [A]_{1}  }{t_{2} - t_{1}  }  where [A]₁ = 8.10×10⁻² M and [A]₂ = 1.80×10⁻³ M

= \frac{1.80*10^{-3} M- 8.10*10^{-2} M}{90 s - 15 s} = -0.001056 M/s = -1.056×10⁻³ M/s

Threfore k = 1.056×10⁻³ M/s

How volcanoes are created​
Lera25 [3.4K]

A volcano is created when hot molten rock, ash and gases escape from an opening in the Earth's surface. The molten rock and ash solidify as they cool, forming the distinctive volcano shape shown here. As a volcano erupts, it spills lava that flows downslope. Hot ash and gases are thrown into the air.
