Consider the chlorination of methane, given below:

1 CH4(g) + 4 Cl2(g)  1 CCl4(g) + 4 HCl(g)

If CH4(g) is decreasing at the rate of 0.230 mol/s, what are the rates of change of Cl2(g), CCl4(g), and HCl(g)?

Cl2(g)/t =  ______ mol/s

CCl4(g)/t = ______ mol/s

HCl(g)/t = ______ mol/s


(b) The decomposition reaction given below:

2 NH3(g)  1 N2(g) + 3 H2(g)

is carried out in a closed reaction vessel. If the partial pressure of NH3(g) is decreasing at the rate of 765 torr/min, what is the rate of change of the total pressure in the vessel?

Ptot /t = ______ torr/min
