The decomposition of N_(2)O_(5) in carbon tetrachloride was followed by measuring the volume of O_(2) gas evolved : 2NO_(2)O_(5)(C Cl_(4)) to 2N_(2)O_(4)(C Cl_(4))+O_(2)(g). The maximum volume of O_(2) gas obtained was 100 cm^(3). In 500 minutes, 90 cm^(3) of O_(2) were evolved. The first order rate constant (in min^(-1)) for the disappearance of N_(2)O_(5) is:

1.	The decomposition of N_(2)O_(5) in carbon tetrachloride was followed by measuring the volume of O_(2) gas evolved : 2NO_(2)O_(5)(C Cl_(4)) to 2N_(2)O_(4)(C Cl_(4))+O_(2)(g). The maximum volume of O_(2) gas obtained was 100 cm^(3). In 500 minutes, 90 cm^(3) of O_(2) were evolved. The first order rate constant (in min^(-1)) for the disappearance of N_(2)O_(5) is:
Answer» `(2.303)/(500)` `(2.303)/(500)log""(100)/(90)` `(2.303)/(500)log""(90)/(100)` `(100)/(10 XX 500)` Solution : `k=(1)/(t)In(a)/(a-x)=(2.303)/(500)`
