Question

The following data were obtained during the first order thermal decomposition of SO2Cl2 at a constant volume. SO2Cl2(g) → S02(g) + Cl2(g) Experiment Time/s−1 Total pressure/atm 1 0 0.5 2 100 0.6 Calculate the rate of the reaction when total pressure is 0.65 atm.

Answer 1

AnswerSo2:

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

SO2Cl2(g) → SO2(g) + Cl2(g) At t = 0s 0.4 atm     0 atm     0 atm At t = 100s (0.4 - x) atm      x atm    x atm

=> pt = 0.4 - x + x + x

=> pt = 0.4 + x

=> 0.7 = 0.4 + x .. . 

x = o.3

k = 2.303 / t log p1 /(2 p1 - p1)
