Chapter 13, Problem 13.95QP

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide has been studied in carbon tetrachloride solvent (CCl₄) at a certain temperature:

$2{\text{N}}_2{\text{O}}_5\stackrel{}{\to }4{\text{NO}}_2+{\text{O}}_2$

[N2O5]	Initial Rate(M/s)
0.92	0.95 × 10−5
1.23	1.20 × 10−5
1.79	1.93 × 10−5
2.00	2.10 × 10−5
2.21	2.26 × 10−5

Determine graphically the rate law for the reaction and calculate the rate constant.
