HI decomposes into its elements according to second-order kinetics. What concentration of HI remains from an initial concentration of 2.30 M after 4.5 hours? The rate constant, k, equals 1.6 x 10-3 M-1 hr-1.

Therefore (2.30-0.03747)= 2.2625 M of HI remains from an initial concentration of 2.30 M after 4.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

second order reaction: The rate of reaction  proportional to the square of the concentration of reactant.

For second order reaction

K is rate constant = 1.6×10⁻³M⁻¹hr⁻¹

a = initial concentration of reactant = 2.30 M

a-x = concentration of reactant after t h

t = time = 4.5 h

Putting the values in the above equation,

Therefore (2.30-0.03747)= 2.2625 M of HI remains from an initial concentration of 2.30 M after 4.5 hours.

sinn is the total amount of students now and m were the students before, you subtract them both (n-m) and divide that by m. then, since to get a percentage from a fraction you have to multiply by 100, your answer should look like this: n-m/m*100
