This reaction is first order in N₂O₅:

The rate constant for the reaction at a certain temperature is 0.053/s.

a. Calculate the rate of the reaction when [N₂O₅] = 0.055 M.

b. What is the rate of the reaction at the concentration indicated in part a if the reaction is second order? Zero order? (Assume the same numerical value for the rate constant with the appropriate units.)
