Answer:
Rate of the reaction= 9.92× 10^-5 M² min-1
Explanation:
Using the equation of reaction
2N2O5 ⟶ 4NO2+O2
Rate = k[N2O5]²
From the question k= 6.2×10-4
[N2O5]= 0.4
Rate = 6.2×10-4[0.4]²= 9.92×10-5M² min-1
First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:
Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound
Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)
Mass % = 50.05%
The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.
