### Reaction Kinetics Problem: Second-Order Kinetics

#### Problem Statement:
At a certain temperature, this reaction follows second-order kinetics with a rate constant of \( 1.68 \, M^{-1} \cdot s^{-1} \):

\[ 2 \text{SO}_3 (g) \rightarrow 2 \text{SO}_2 (g) + \text{O}_2 (g) \]

Suppose a vessel contains \(\text{SO}_3\) at a concentration of \(0.900 \, M\). Calculate the concentration of \(\text{SO}_3\) in the vessel \(7.60\) seconds later. You may assume no other reaction is important.

Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

#### Solution:
The input box is provided for students to enter their answer in molarity \(M\) after performing the necessary calculations, along with a reset button and a help feature.

### Explanation of Diagrams and Tools:
- **Input Box:** This is where you will enter your final answer.
- **Reset Button:** If you want to start over, use this button to clear your input.
