The gas-phase decomposition of so2cl2, so2cl2(g)→so2(g)+cl2(g), is first order in so2cl2. at 600 k the half-life for this process is 2.3×105s.
part a
what is the rate constant at this temperature?
express your answer using two significant figures.
part b
at 320 ∘c the rate constant is 2.2×10−5s−1. what is the half-life at this temperature?
express your answer using two significant figures.

Rocks, as they are compressed, begin forming mountains above the earth's surface when two continental plates converge. the continental crust increases in depth as the mountains grow above. the himalayan mountains formed at a convergent plate boundary in this manner. the rocks are smashed together causing them to due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates and eventually forming rock. a) melt; igneous b) layer; sedimentary c) recrystallize; metamorphic d) melt into the earth's interior; metamorphic
