Question

(a) Consider the combustion of butane, given below:

2 C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂(g) 8 CO₂(g) + 10 H₂O(g)

If C₄H₁₀(g) is decreasing at the rate of 0.700 mol/s, what are the rates of change of O₂(g), CO₂(g), and H₂O(g)?

O₂(g)/t =  mol/s

CO₂(g)/t =  mol/s

H₂O(g)/t =  mol/s

(b) The decomposition reaction given below:

2 N₂O₅(g) 4 NO₂(g) + 1 O₂(g)

is carried out in a closed reaction vessel. If the partial pressure of N₂O₅(g) is decreasing at the rate of 634 torr/min, what is the rate of change of the total pressure in the vessel?

P_tot /t = torr/min
