HO, is a highly reactive chemical species that plays a role in atmospheric chemistry. The rate of the gas-phase reaction HO2(g) + HO2(g)→ H2O2(g) + O2(8) is second order in [HO,], with a rate constant at 25°C of 1.4 x 10° L mol-1 s¬1. Suppose some HO, with an initial concentration of 2.0 × 10-8 M could be confined at 25°C. Calculate the concentration that would remain after 1.0 s, assuming no other reactions take place.
