Problem 6 The decomposition of N,0, in CCl solution at 318 K has been studied by monitoring
unentration of N,Og in the solution. Initially theconcentration of N,O,is 233 M and after 184 minutes, it
rdUCed to 2408 M. The
reaction takes place according to the equation: 2 4 NO,+ O,
N,Os
Calculate the average rate of this reaction in terms of hours, minutes and seconds. What is the rate of
FUduction of NO, during this period ? NCERT Solved Example
