12.3 Exercise 12

Avg difficulty 2.5

Nitrosyl chloride, NOCl, decomposes to NO and Cl2.
2NOCl(g)⟶2NO(g)+Cl2(g)\text{2NOCl}( g \left.\right) \rightarrow \text{2NO}( g \left.\right) + \text{Cl}_{2} \left(g\right)

Determine the rate law, the rate constant, and the overall order for this reaction from the following data:

[NOCl] (M) 0.10 0.20 0.30
Rate (mol L−1 h−1) 8.0 ×\times 10−10 3.2 ×\times 10−9 7.2 ×\times 10−9
