In a study of the gas phase decomposition of nitrosyl chloride at 400 K NOCI(g) NO(g) + ½ Cl2(g) the concentration of NOCI was followed as a function of time. It was found that a graph of 1/[NOCI] versus time in seconds gave a straight line with a slope of 8.61x104 M's and a y-intercept of 13.8 M Based on this plot, the reaction is M's order in NOCI and the rate constant for the reaction is
