The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the rate of formation of \( NO_2 \) from the decomposition of \( N_2O_5 \) based on the given reaction and concentration changes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the balanced chemical equation**: \[ 2 N_2O_5(g) \rightarrow 4 NO_2(g) + O_2(g) \] 2. **Identify initial and final concentrations**: - Initial concentration of \( N_2O_5 \): \( [N_2O_5]_0 = 3.00 \, \text{mol/L} \) - Final concentration of \( N_2O_5 \) after 30 minutes: \( [N_2O_5]_t = 2.75 \, \text{mol/L} \) 3. **Calculate the change in concentration of \( N_2O_5 \)**: \[ \Delta [N_2O_5] = [N_2O_5]_0 - [N_2O_5]_t = 3.00 - 2.75 = 0.25 \, \text{mol/L} \] 4. **Determine the rate of decomposition of \( N_2O_5 \)**: The rate of decomposition is given by: \[ \text{Rate} = -\frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta [N_2O_5]}{\Delta t} \] Here, \( \Delta t = 30 \, \text{minutes} = 30 \, \text{min} \). Substituting the values: \[ \text{Rate} = -\frac{1}{2} \frac{0.25 \, \text{mol/L}}{30 \, \text{min}} = -\frac{0.25}{60} = -0.004167 \, \text{mol/L/min} \] 5. **Convert to positive rate**: Since we are interested in the rate of formation of \( NO_2 \), we take the positive value: \[ \text{Rate of formation of } NO_2 = \frac{4}{2} \times \text{Rate of decomposition of } N_2O_5 = 2 \times 0.004167 = 0.008334 \, \text{mol/L/min} \] 6. **Express the rate in scientific notation**: \[ 0.008334 \, \text{mol/L/min} = 8.334 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{mol/L/min} \] 7. **Compare with the given rate of formation**: The problem states that the rate of formation of \( NO_2 \) is given as: \[ 1.67 \times 10^{-x} \, \text{mol/L/min} \] Setting the two expressions equal: \[ 8.334 \times 10^{-3} = 1.67 \times 10^{-x} \] 8. **Solve for \( x \)**: Rearranging gives: \[ 8.334 = 1.67 \times 10^{3-x} \] Dividing both sides by 1.67: \[ \frac{8.334}{1.67} = 10^{3-x} \] Calculating the left side: \[ 4.99 \approx 5 \implies 10^{3-x} = 5 \] Taking logarithm base 10: \[ 3 - x = \log_{10}(5) \approx 0.699 \] Thus, \[ x \approx 3 - 0.699 \approx 2.301 \implies x \approx 2 \] ### Final Answer: The numerical value of \( x \) is \( 2 \).

To solve the problem, we need to determine the rate of formation of \( NO_2 \) from the decomposition of \( N_2O_5 \) based on the given reaction and concentration changes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the balanced chemical equation**: \[ 2 N_2O_5(g) \rightarrow 4 NO_2(g) + O_2(g) \] ...
