To solve the problem regarding the decomposition of ammonia (NH₃) on a platinum surface, we will follow these steps:
### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation for the decomposition of NH₃.
The decomposition of ammonia can be represented as:
\[ 2 \text{NH}_3 \rightarrow \text{N}_2 + 3 \text{H}_2 \]
### Step 2: Identify the order of the reaction and the rate constant.
The problem states that the reaction is zero-order with respect to NH₃, and the rate constant \( K \) is given as:
