The decomposition of ammonia on a platinum surface at 856 °C NH3-1/2 N2 + 3/2 H2 is zero order in NH3- In one experiment, when the initial concentration of NH3 was 4.38x103 M, the concentration of NH3 dropped to 1.09x103 M after 1.48x103 seconds had passed. Based on these data, the rate constant for the reaction is Ms1.
