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 × 10−7 mol L−1 min−1 when the concentration of sulfur trioxide is 5.4 × 10−3 mol L−1, 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
