Question

The decomposition of SO2Cl2

SO2Cl2(g) --> SO2(g) + Cl2(g)
is order 1 with respect to SO2Cl2 and its half-life (t1/2) is 263 minutes at 300oC. Initially, in a 1.0 L container, the partial pressure of SO2Cl2 is 4.00 kPa.
a) What will be the partial pressure of SO2Cl2, SO2 and Cl2 after 263 minutes?

Answers:
P (SO2Cl2):    P(SO2):         P(Cl2):

b) What is the rate constant, k, of this reaction at 300oC?
