Dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5) decomposes in chloroform as a solvent to yield NO2 and O2. The decomposition is first order with a rate constant at 45 ∘C of 1.0×10−5s−1.
Part A
Calculate the partial pressure of O2 produced from 1.69 L of 0.524 M N2O5 solution at 45 ∘C over a period of 16.2 h if the gas is collected in a 11.6-L container. (Assume that the products do not dissolve in chloroform.)
Answer Pressure in terms of atm
