The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the decomposition of \( N_2O_5 \) and its kinetics, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the Reaction The decomposition of \( N_2O_5 \) is given as: \[ 2N_2O_5 \rightarrow 4NO_2 + O_2 \] ### Step 2: Determine Molecularity Molecularity refers to the number of reactant molecules that participate in a single step of a reaction. In this case, we have 2 molecules of \( N_2O_5 \) reacting to form products. Therefore, the molecularity of this reaction is: - **Molecularity = 2** (since 2 molecules of \( N_2O_5 \) are involved) ### Step 3: Identify the Order of Reaction The question states that the reaction follows first-order kinetics. In first-order reactions, the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of one reactant. ### Step 4: Analyze the Options 1. **Option 1: The reaction is bimolecular.** - This is correct because there are 2 molecules of \( N_2O_5 \) involved in the reaction. 2. **Option 2: The reaction is unimolecular.** - This is incorrect as there are 2 molecules involved, not 1. 3. **Option 3: The time is directly proportional to the concentration to the power 0.** - This is correct because in first-order reactions, the half-life is independent of the initial concentration, which can be interpreted as being proportional to concentration raised to the power of 0. 4. **Option 4: None of these.** - This is incorrect since we have already identified correct options. ### Conclusion The correct answers are: - Option 1: The reaction is bimolecular. - Option 3: The time is directly proportional to the concentration to the power 0.
