NO2 required for a reaction is produced by decomposition of N2O5 in CCl4 as by equation
2N2O5(g)→4NO2(g)+O2(g)
The initial concentration of N2O5 is 3 mol L-1 and it is 2.75 mol L-1 after 30 minutes.
The rate of formation of NO2 is x×10-3 mol L-1 min-1, Value of x is ________ . (nearest integer) [2024]
(17)
Rate of dissociation of N2O5: -Δ[N2O5]t=-(2.75-3) mol L-130 min=1120 molL min
By stoichiometry of the reaction, 2N2O5(g)→4NO2(g)+O2(g)
Rate of reaction=-12Δ[N2O5]t=14Δ[NO2]t
⇒Δ[NO2]t=2×Δ[N2O5]t
Δ[NO2]t=2×1120molL min=16.67×10-3 molL min≈17×10-3 molL min
