The reaction 2A → A2​​​​​ was experimentally determined to be second order with a rate constant, k, equal to 0.0265 M–1min–1. If
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

0.19M

Explanation:

2A → A2​​​​​

Rate constant = 0.0265 M–1min–1

Initial concentration = 2.00 M

Final Concentration = ?

time, t =  180min

The formular relating the parameters is given as;

1 / [A] = kt + 1 / [A]o

1 / [A] = 0.0265 * 180 + (1 / 2)

1 / [A] = 4.77 + 0.5

[A] = 1 / 5.27 = 0.19M
