Volume has the same relationship with the number of particles than the pressure.
You can see it in the ideal gas equation: PV = nRT
As much as V and P are proportional to n.
Particles in a gas are far apart compared to a solid or liquid, allowing it not to have a definitive shape or volume. This also means that gases can fill any container and be easily compressed.
Answer :
(a) The rate of
formed is, 0.066 M/s
(b) The rate of
formed is, 0.033 M/s
Explanation : Given,
= 0.066 M/s
The balanced chemical reaction is,

The rate of disappearance of
= ![-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
The rate of disappearance of
= ![-\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
The rate of formation of
= ![\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
As we know that,
= 0.066 M/s
(a) Now we have to determine the rate of
formed.
![\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}=\frac{d[NO]}{dt}=0.066M/s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D0.066M%2Fs)
The rate of
formed is, 0.066 M/s
(b) Now we have to determine the rate of molecular oxygen reacting.
![-\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.066M/s=0.033M/s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctimes%200.066M%2Fs%3D0.033M%2Fs)
The rate of
formed is, 0.033 M/s
Lungfish are thought to be related to the first creatures that crawled out of the water to colonize land. The new findings support the theory that walking first arose underwater, preceding the move onto land and the development of toes and limbs adapted to land perambulation. ..
