The statement informs us that the sodium chlorate decomposes, which means that it is the only reactant that will be present. Moreover, the products of the decomposition are specified, so we first write the equation:

NaClO₃ → NaCl + O₂

Next, we balance the equation and finally get:

2NaClO₃ → 2NaCl + 3O₂

Assuming the relative rate of secondary hydrogen atom abstraction for the chlorination of propane is 3.9 times faster than the r
Ghella [55]

Answer:

% of n-propyl chloride = 43.48 %

Explanation:

There are 2 secondary hydrogens and 6 primary hydrogens

The rate of abstraction of seondary hydrogen = 3.9 X rate of abstraction of primary hydrogen

probability of formation of isopropyl chloride = 3.9 X 1 (relative rate X relative number of secondary hydrogens)

Probability of formation of n-propyl chloride = 1 X 3 (relative rate X relative number of primary hydrogens)

Total probability = 3.9

% of n-propyl chloride = 3 X 100 / 6.9 = 43.48 %

Consider the following reaction: 2{\rm{ N}}_2 {\rm{O(}}g)\; \rightarrow \;2{\rm{ N}}_2 (g)\; + \;{\rm{O}}_2 (g)
fredd [130]

Answer:

a. 5.9 × 10⁻³ M/s

b. 0.012 M/s

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 N₂O(g) → 2 N₂(g) + O₂(g)

a.

Time (t): 12.0 s

Δn(O₂): 1.7 × 10⁻² mol

Volume (V): 0.240 L

We can find the average rate of the reaction over this time interval using the following expression.

r = Δn(O₂) / V × t

r = 1.7 × 10⁻² mol / 0.240 L × 12.0 s

r = 5.9 × 10⁻³ M/s

b. The molar ratio of N₂O to O₂ is 2:1. The rate of change of N₂O is:

5.9 × 10⁻³ mol O₂/L.s × (2 mol N₂O/1 mol O₂) = 0.012 M/s
