first order kinetics.
2N2O5(g) 4NO2(g) + O2(g)
0.2 mole of N2O5 was taken in a vessel of capacity 1 L and heated to a certain temperature
of T Kelvin at which the reaction begins. The concentration of N2O6 is measured at different
intervals of time by withdrawing samples of reaction mixture. A plot of In [N2O2] vs time
is shown in Fig. (1). The value of rate constant (k) of the reaction is determined from the
slope of the linear plot. The same experiment is repeated at five different temperatures
and the values of the rate constants are calculated at each temperature. A plot of In k vs
(temperature)-1 is shown in Fig. (2).
