Given the balanced chemical equation for the decomposition for INO, and the rate of disappearance of INO, write the expressions for the rates of appearance of I2 and NO. 2INO(g) → I2(g) + 2NO(g)

Reactant: Product(I2): Product(NO):

-∆[INO]/2∆t = ??/??

rate of disappearance of -0.5d[INO]/dt

rate of appearance of I2 = d[I2]/dt

rate of appearance of No = 0.5*d[NO]/dt

Explanation:

c is having 4 valence electrons and is bonded to three hydrogens and one sulphur atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to four. as all the valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, there is no lone pair left on carbon.

s is having 6 valence electrons and is bonded to one other sulfur atom and one carbon atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to 2. as only two valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, four electrons are left. therefore, two lone pairs are present on s.
