Q.
The specific rate constant of the decomposition of N2O5 is
0.008 min−1. The volume of O2 collected after 20 minutes is 16mL. Find the volume that would be collected at the end of reaction. NO2 formed is dissolved in CCl4.
Given k=0.008 min−1
From unit of k, the reaction is of the order of first.
From ∴k=t2.303 log V∞−VtV∞ ⇒0.008=202.303 log V∞−16V∞ ⇒0.0695= log V∞−16V∞ ⇒V∞=17.49mL
