Ethyl chloride, CH3 CH₂ Cl, used to produce tetraethyllead gasoline additive, decomposes, when heated, to give ethylene and hydrogen
chloride.
CH3 CH₂Cl(g) → C₂H4 (9) + HCl(g)
The reaction is first order. In an experiment, the initial concentration of ethyl chloride was 1.00 x 107 M. After heating at 500°C for 155 s,
this was reduced to 6.70 x 10-4 M. What was the concentration of ethyl chloride after a total of 247 s?
Concentration =
M
