The gas phase decomposition of nitrogen dioxide at 383 °C NO₂(g) → NO(g) + ½ O₂(g) is second order in NO2. In one experiment, when the initial concentration of NO₂ was 0.136 M, the concentration of NO2 dropped to 3.62 x 10-2 M after 28.7 seconds had passed. Based on these data, the rate constant for the reaction is M¹ s²-¹.

Consider the combustion of ethane:
2C2H6 (9) +702(g) → 4 CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O(g)
If the ethane is burning at the rate of 0.8 mol/L x s, at what rates are
CO₂ and
H₂O being produced?
CO₂ =
H₂O =
