Answer:
(a) 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s
(b) 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹
Explanation:
(a) The reaction is:
O₃(g) + NO(g) → O₂(g) + NO₂(g) (1)
The reaction rate of equation (1) is given by:
(2)
<u>We have:</u>
k: is the rate constant of reaction = 3.91x10⁶ M⁻¹.s⁻¹
[O₃]₀ = 2.35x10⁻⁶ M
[NO]₀ = 7.74x10⁻⁵ M
Hence, to find the inital reacion rate we will use equation (2):
Therefore, the inital reaction rate is 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s
(b) The number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is:
t = 1 h
V = 1 L
Hence, the number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹
I hope it helps you!
