Question
(ii) At elevated temperatures, nitrogen dioxide decomposes to nitric oxide and molecular oxygen:
2NO2(g) –
→ 2NO(g) + O2(g)
The change in concentration of NO2 with time at 300 °C is given below:
t (s)
100
200
300
400
500
[NO2]/103
(mol dm-3)
8.0
5.6
4.3
3.5
2.9
2.5
By appropriate plotting of the data and use of this graph:
(a) verify that this reaction is second order with respect to NO2;
(b) determine the rate constant for this reaction.
