Q.

The decomposition of Cl2O7 at 400 K in the gas phase to Cl2 and O2 is a first order reaction. After 55 seconds at 400 K the pressure of Cl2O7 falls from 0.062 to 0.044 atm. The rate constant and pressure of Cl2O7 after 100 sec of decomposition at this temperature are

Detailed Solution

The equation for first order reaction is K=2.303tlog⁡(aa−x)(i) Here a=0.062, a−x=0.044k=2.30355log⁡0.0620.044=6.2×10−3sec⁡−1(ii) Here we are to find the value of a−x6.20×10−3=2.303100log⁡0.062a−xlog⁡0.062a−x=2.69×10−10.062a−x=1.86a−x=0.0621.86=0.033 atm
