The following data are for the decomposition of ammonium nitrite in aqueous solution : The order of reaction is:
Options
- AZero
- BOne
- CTwo
- DThree
Correct answer
B. One
Step-by-step solution
NH ₄ NO ₂ N ₂+2 H ₂ O Volume of N ₂ formed in successive five minutes are 2.75 cc , 2.40 cc and 2.25 cc which is in decreasing order. So rate of reaction is dependent on concentration of NH ₄ NO ₂ . As decrease is not very fast so it will be first order reaction.
