question 126

Multiple Choice

Write a balanced reaction for which the following rate relationships are true. Rate = - $\frac { 1 } { 2 }$ $\frac { \Delta \left[ \mathrm { N } _ { 2 } \mathrm { O } _ { 5 } \right] } { \Delta t }$ = $\frac { 1 } { 4 }$ $\frac { \Delta \left[ \mathrm { NO } _ { 2 } \right] } { \Delta t }$ = $\frac { \Delta \left[ \mathrm { O } _ { 2 } \right] } { \Delta t }$

• A)2N₂O₅ ? 4NO₂ + O₂
• B)4NO₂ + O₂ ? 2N₂O₅
• C)2N₂O₅ ? NO₂ + 4O₂
• D) \(\frac { 1 } { 4 } \mathrm { NO } _ { 2 } + \mathrm { O } _ { 2 } \rightarrow \frac { 1 } { 2 } \mathrm {~N} _ { 2 } \mathrm { O } _ { 5 }\)
• E) \(\frac { 1 } { 2 } \mathrm {~N} _ { 2 } \mathrm { O } _ { 5 } \rightarrow \frac { 1 } { 4 } \mathrm { NO } _ { 2 } + \mathrm { O } _ { 2 }\)
