Nitrogen tetra oxide (N2O4) decomposes as N2O4(g)→2NO2(g). If the pressure of (N2O4) falls from 0.50 atm to 0.32 atm is 30 minutes, the rate of appearance of NO2(g) is
A
0.006 atm/min

Solution
The correct option is C0.012 atm/min Rate of disappearance of N2O4 =Δ[N2O4]Δt=0.50−0.3230 = 0.006 atm/min Rate of appearance of NO2= Twice of rate of disappearance of N2O4 =2×0.006= 0.012 atm/min
