Question

**Problem 7**

[Show your work] The gas phase reaction below obeys second-order kinetics. At a temperature of 20 °C and an initial concentration of NO₃ equal to 0.0500 mol/L, the concentration after 60 minutes is equal to 0.0358 mol/L. Assuming the reverse reaction to be negligible, find the value of the forward rate constant in L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹.

\[ \text{NO}_3 \rightleftharpoons \text{NO}_2 + \frac{1}{2} \text{O}_2 \]

**Explanation:**

This problem requires calculating the rate constant of a reaction that follows second-order kinetics. You are provided with the initial concentration ([NO₃]₀ = 0.0500 mol/L) and the concentration after a specified time period ([NO₃]_t = 0.0358 mol/L after 60 minutes).

Key steps involve using the second-order rate equation:

\[ \frac{1}{[A]_t} = \frac{1}{[A]_0} + kt \]

Where:
- \([A]_t\) is the concentration of reactant A at time t,
- \([A]_0\) is the initial concentration,
- \(k\) is the rate constant,
- \(t\) is the time (in seconds).

You need to convert the given time from minutes to seconds and rearrange to solve for \(k\).
