6.17 The elimination of carbon dioxide from pyruvate ions by a decarboxylase enzyme was monitored by measuring the partial pressure of the gas as it was formed in a 250 mL flask at 293. In one experiment, the partial pressure increased from zero to 100 Pa in 522 s in a first-order reaction when the initial concentration of pyruvate ions in 100 mL of solution was 3.23 mmol L-, What is the rate constant of the reaction?
