The 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was shared by Paul Crutzen, F. Sherwood Rowland, and Mario Molina for their work concerning the formation and decomposition of ozone in the stratosphere. Rowland and Molina hypothesized that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the stratosphere break down upon exposure to UV radiation, producing chlorine atoms. Chlorine was previously identified as a catalyst in the breakdown of ozone into oxygen gas. Using the enthalpy of reaction for two reactions with ozone, determine the enthalpy of reaction for the reaction of chlorine with ozone.

Two gases X and Y are found in the atmosphere in only trace amounts because they decompose quickly. When exposed to ultraviolet light the half-life of X is 15. min, while that of Y is 2.50 h. Suppose an atmospheric scientist studying these decompositions fills a transparent 10.0 L flask with X and Y and exposes the flask to UV light. Initially, the partial pressure of X is 5.0 times greater than the partial pressure of Y. As both gases decompose, will the partial pressure of X ever fall below the partial pressure of Y? If you said yes, calculate the time it takes the partial pressure of X to fall below the partial pressure of Y. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. O yes O no min 0 0 14
