Given information
The reaction in which the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of only one reactant. The formula for the first-order rate equation is,
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The initial pressure of the system containing is .
The change in pressure of the system containing of is supposed to be .
The given constant time is .
The rate constant for the first-order decomposition of to and is .
The relation between the rate constant and pressure at a given constant time is expressed by the formula,
Where,
-
is the initial pressure of the system.
-
is the change in pressure of the system.
-
is the rate constant.
-
is the constant time.
Substitute the respective values pressure and rate constant in the above expression.
