Chapter 7, Problem 7.10P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The rate law parameters for the given reaction of decomposition of NO2 with the help of plot between fractional decomposition of NO2 and the ratio of the reactor volume to the NO2 feed rate are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The rate law of the chemical reaction states that the rate of reaction is the function of the concentration of the reactants and the products present in that specific reaction. The rate is actually predicted by the slowest step of the reaction.

If there is a chemical reaction which has reactants A and B that reacts to form products then their rate law is given as follows.

    r=k[A]a[B]b

Here, [A] is the concentration of the reactant A, [B] is the concentration of the reactant B and k is the rate constant.
