Chapter 13, Problem 26E

The tabuated data show the concentration of ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{5}}$ versus time for the reaction.

${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{5}}(g)\to {\text{NO}}_{\text{3}}(g)+{\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}(g)$

Determine the order of the reaction and the value of the rate constant. Predict the concentration of ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{5}}$ at250s.
