Chapter 14, Problem 141

For the thermal decomposition of nitrous oxide, 2 N2O1g2S 2 N21g2 + O21g2, values of the parameters in the Arrhenius equation are A = 4.2 * 109 s-1 and Ea = 222 kJ>mol. If a stream of N2O is passed through a tube 25 mm in diameter and 20 cm long at a flow rate of 0.75 L/min at what temperature should the tube be maintained to have a partial pressure of 1.0 mm of O2 in the exit gas? Assume that the total pressure of the gas in the tube is 1.50 atm.
