Peroxynitric acid (HOONO2) is an unstable molecule that decomposes to nitric acid and oxygen:
2HOONO2(aq) → 2HNO3(aq) + O2(g)When the concentration of peroxynitic acid is graphed against time, the resulting plot is
curved, but if the logarithm of this concentration is plotted, we instead get a straight line.
Based on this, which statement is true?
a) This decay is a second order in peroxynitric acid.
b) The slope of the straight-line graph is the rate constant.
c) One needs the concentration of peroxynitric acid to calculate its half-life.
d) The rate law appears to be of the form -Δ[HOONO2]/Δt = k[HOONO2].
