The reaction 2H2(g) + 2NO(g) → 2H2O(g) + N2(g) is first order in H2 and second order in NO. The rate constant of the reaction at a certain temperature is 0.42M-2s-1. Calculate the rate when [H2] = 0.015 M and [NO] = 0.025 M.

Answer»

Given,

2H2(g) + 2NO(g) → 2H2O(g) + N2(g)

Order of reaction in H2\(n_{H_1}\) = 1

Order of reaction in NO = nNO = 2

Rate constant = k = 0.42 M-2s-1

[H2] = 0.015 M; [NO] = 0.025 M

Rate of reaction = R = ? 

By rate law,

Rate = R = k [H2] [NO]2

= 0.42 x 0.015 x (0.025)2 M-2s-1

= 3.94 x 10-6 Ms-1

∴ Rate of reaction = R = 3.94 x 10-6 Ms-1
