Problem Details

This plot shows the rate of the decomposition of SO2Cl2 into SO2 and Cl2 as a function of the concentration of SO2Cl2.
A plot of concentration of suluryl chloride versus reaction rate. The line begins at the origin, then icreases linearly with a constant slope. At a concentration of one the rate equals point zero three.
