A(g)2 B( g)+C(g) is a first order reaction. The initial pressure of the system was found to be 800 mm Hg which increased to 1600 mm Hg after 10 min. The total pressure of the system after 30 min will be mm Hg. (Nearest integer)

Solution

The final pressure of each component can be calculated as follows,

                             A(g)2 B( g)+C(g)intial                     800         0             0At time=t           800-p    2p           p

800 + 2p = 1600

2p = 800

p= 400

The first order reaction rate constant can be calculated as follows,

K=2.30310log800400=2.303×log210

For 30 min,

K=2.30330log(800)(800-y)

2.303×log210=2.30330log800800-y

800800-y=8

100 = 800  y

y = 700

Total pressure after 30 min

(800  y) + (2y) + (y)

= 800 + 2y

= 800 + 1400

= 2200 mm Hg
