Sulfur Trioxide Can Undergo Decomposition According to the Equation 2SO3

Question 22

Multiple Choice

Sulfur trioxide can undergo decomposition according to the equation 2SO3 → 2SO2 + O2
For this reaction, rate = −0.5Δ[SO3 ]/Δt = k[SO3]2. If the reaction rate is 1.75 × 107 mol L1 min1 when the concentration of sulfur trioxide is 5.4 × 103 mol L1, what is the value of the rate constant k?


A) 3.2 × 10 5 L mol 1 min 1
B) 1.6 × 10 5 L mol 1 min 1
C) 6.0 × 10 3 L mol 1 min 1
D) 3.0 × 10 3 L mol 1 min 1
E) 1.6 × 10 2 L mol 1 min 1
