Chlorine monoxide (CIO) plays a major role in the creation of the ozone holes in

Question

Chlorine monoxide (CIO) plays a major role in the creation of the ozone holes in the stratosphere over Earth's polar regions.

A. If Delta(CIO)/deltaT at 298K is -2.3 x 10^7 M/s, what is the rate of change in (CI2) and (O2) in the following reaction

              2CIO(g) ---------- Cl2 (g) + O2(g)

B. If Delta(CIO)/DeltaT is -2.9 x 10^4 M/s, what is the rate of formation of oxygen and CIO2 in the following reaction?

              CIO(g) + O3(g) ------------ O2(g) + CIO2 (g)

I have the answers I just dont know how to work it. Please help!

Answers:

A is 1.2 x 10^7

B is 2.9 x 10^4

Explanation / Answer

? ClO= -2.3 x 10-7mol/s

2CIO(g) ---------- Cl2 (g) + O2(g)

from the stochometry of the given chemical eqn

we have rkn rate in terms

rate of disappearance and formation
