Question

The bimolecular reaction of chlorine monoxide can result in the formation of three different combinations of products or product channels (the rate constant for each reaction is indicated): ClO(g) + ClO(g) → Cl2(g) + O2(g) k= 2.9 × 106 ClO(g) + ClO(g) → ClOO(g) + Cl(g) k= 7.0 × 106 ClO(g) + ClO(g) → OClO(g) + Cl(g) k= 2.1 × 106 By using 1.00 bar chlorine monoxide, what would be the partial pressure yield of chlorine atom? A) 0.38 bar B) 0.12 bar C) 0.58 bar D) 0.18 bar E) 0.70 bar 

Answer 1

2.9×10⁶ × 2.1×10⁶/7.0×10⁶

0.82

= 1-0.82 = 0.18bar
