    For a reaction \[2{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\xrightarrow{{}}4N{{O}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}},\]rate and rate constant are \[1.02\times {{10}^{-4}}\]mol \[{{L}^{-1}}\,{{s}^{-1}}\] and \[3.4\times {{10}^{-5}}\,{{\sec }^{-1}}\]. The concentration of \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\] at that time will be:

    A)  \[1.732\,mol\,{{L}^{-1}}\]           

    B)         \[3\,mol\,{{L}^{-1}}\]   

    C)         \[1.02\times {{10}^{-4}}\,mol\,{{L}^{-1}}\]          

    D)  \[3.2\times {{10}^{5}}\,mol\,{{L}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    For reaction, \[2{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\xrightarrow{{}}4N{{O}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\] Given that, \[K=3.4\times {{10}^{-5}}{{\sec }^{-1}}\] (i.e., reaction is of 1st order, as its unit is\[{{\sec }^{-1}}\]) \[r=1.02\times {{10}^{-4}}\,mol\,{{L}^{-1}}{{s}^{-1}}\] We know that, \[r=K\cdot [{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}]\] (for 1st order reaction) \[\therefore \]  \[[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}]=\frac{1.02\times {{10}^{-4}}}{3.4\times {{10}^{-5}}}=3\,mol\,{{L}^{-1}}\]
