It is found that a gas undergoes a zero order decomposition reaction in the presence of Ni catalyst. If the rate constant for the reaction is 8.10x10^-2 M / s and the initial concentration of the gas is 0.100M. (Use the correct number of significant figures) a. How long in minutes, will it take for the concentration to decrease to 0.0010M b. What would the concentration of the gas be after 65.0 minutes has elapsed? c. What is the half life for this reaction? d. What effect would doubling the concentration of the gas have on the rate of the reaction?
