    Why Is My Calculation of the Initial Rate of Decomposition for NO2 Not Accepted?

    Thank you for the welcome! Sorry I misprinted the information above. A previous question for this problem was "what is the value of the rate constant" and the text calculates it for you as k=(.54 / M*s). What is really getting to me is a previous question as well where it asked for the...
