Solution

The correct option is A 0.47
The complete decomposition of C2H5Br result in change of 390200=190mm Hg of pressure.
So, Change in pressure of 190mmHg=100% change
1mm of Hg pressure change results =100190
300200 i.e 10mm of Hg pressure change results in =100190×100=52.63%
Fraction that reaction unchanged =152.63100=0.47
