Answer:
(a) The rate of formation of K2O is 0.12 M/s.
The rate of formation of N2 is also 0.12 M/s
(b) The rate of decomposition of KNO3 is 0.24 M/s
Explanation:
(a) From the equation of reaction, the mole ratio of K2O to O2 is 2:5.
Rate of formation of O2 is 0.3 M/s
Therefore, rate of formation of K2O = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s
Also from the equation of reaction, mole ratio of N2 to O2 is 2:5.
Rate of formation of N2 = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s
(b) From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of KNO3 to O2 is 4:5.
Therefore, rate of decomposition of KNO3 = (4×0.3/5) = 0.24 M/s
