For the reaction
2N2O5(g) → 4NO2(g) + O2(g) ,
the rate of formation of NO2(g) is 2.8×10-3Ms-1 . Calculate the rate of disappearance of N2O5 (g) .
2N2O5(g) → 4NO2(g) + O2(g)
The rate of the reaction is given by
Rate=1/2 {-Δ[N2O5]/ Δt}
Or
{-Δ[N2O5]/ Δt} =1/2{[NO2 / Δt]}
= 2.8×10-3

= ![]()

The rate of disappearance =
= 1.4 ×10-3M/sec
So, the rate of disappearance of N2O5 would be half of rate of production of NO2. So the rate of disappearance of N2O5 is 1.4 ×10-3M/sec
