For the conversion of methyl isonitrile to acetonitrile in the gas phase at 250 °C, the rate of the reaction is determined by measuring the appearance of CH3CN. CH3NC CH3CN At the beginning of the reaction, the concentration of CH3CN is 0 M. After 232 s the concentration has increased to 3.31x102 M. What is the rate of the reaction? (mol CH3CN/L) /s

Best way to figure this out
For the conversion of methyl isonitrile to acetonitrile in the gas phase at 250 °C, the rate of the reaction is determined by measuring the appearance of CH₃CN. \[ \text{CH}_3\text{NC} \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CN} \] At the beginning of the reaction, the concentration of CH₃CN is 0 M. After 232 s, the concentration has increased to \(3.31 \times 10^{-2}\) M. What is the rate of the reaction? \[ \_\_\_\_ \text{ (mol CH}_3\text{CN/L) /s} \] - **Submit Answer** - **Try Another Version** 4 attempts remain.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Reaction involved :

CH3NC ------> CH3CN 

Rate of reaction

= - Δ[CH3NC]/Δt = + Δ[CH3CN]/Δt  -----(1) 

where - Δ[CH3NC]/Δt represent rate of disappearance of CH3NC

+ Δ[CH3CN]/Δt represent rate of appearance of CH3CN
