The decomposition of ammonia on a tungsten surface at 1100 °C NH3 1/2 N2 +3/2 H2 is zero order in NH3. In one experiment, when the initial concentration of NH, was 1.38x102 M, the concentration of NH, dropped to 3.20x103 M after 2.26x10 seconds had passed. Based on these data, the rate constant for the reaction is Ms

Regular ?ights of supersonic aircraft in the stratosphere ale of concern because such aircraft produce nitric oxide, NO, as a byproduct in the exhaust of their engines. Nitric oxide reacts with ozone, and it has been suggested that this could contribute to depletion of the ozone layer. The reaction NO+O3NO2+O2 is first order with respect to both NO and O3 with a rate constant of 2.20107 L/mol/s. What is the instantaneous rate of disappearance of NO when [NO]=3.3106 M and [O3]=5.9107M?
For the past 10 years, the unsaturated hydrocarbon 1, 3-butadiene (CH2 = CH - CH = CH2) has ranked 38th among the top 50 industrial Chemicals. It is used primarily for the manufacture of synthetic rubber.
