Nitrosyl bromide decomposes by the reaction 2 NOBr(g) → 2 NO(g) + Br2(g). Show that the following data are consistent with a second-order reaction and determine the second-order rate constant for the reaction. Students may do this by plotting the data three different ways. For each plot, time goes on the x-axis. A zero-order reaction is linear when [NOBr] on the y-axis. A first-order reaction is linear when ln[NOBr] is on the y-axis. A second-order reaction is linear when 1/[NOBr] is on the y-axis. t 0 5 10 15 50 85 s [NOBr] 0.0653 0.0514 0.0424 0.0361 0.0177 0.0117 M What is the rate law for the reaction? (Rate equations take the general form 'rate = k . [A] . [B]'.) chemPadHelp rate = k. [NOBr]2 rate = k. [NOBr]^2 Correct. What is the value of the rate constant at the temperature of the experiment? WebAssign will check your answer for the correct number of significant figures. 0.830 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.
