Chapter 7, Problem 42P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The rate constant should be calculated for the following reaction.

$\text{2NOBr(g)}◰\; \hspace{1em}{\text{2NO(g)+Br}}_{\text{2}}\text{(g)}$

Where rate of the reaction is $-2.3$

$\mathrm{mol}$

$\text{NOBr/L/h}$ and initial $\text{NOBr}$ concentration is $6.2$

$\text{mol}$

$\text{NOBr/L}$

Concept Introduction:

$\text{2NOBr(g)}◰\; \hspace{1em}{\text{2NO(g)+Br}}_{\text{2}}\text{(g)}$ is a second order reaction and rate expression ${\text{=k[NOBr]}}^{\text{2}}$.
