Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The relation between the rate of consumption of ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{5}}$ to the rate of formation of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ and ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The rate of the formation and consumption is expressed as,

$\text{Rate}=\pm \frac{\Delta \left[\text{X}\right]}{dt}$

To determine: The relation between the rate of consumption of ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{5}}$ to the rate of formation of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ and ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$.
