Determine the order of the reaction and its rate constant.
21.9 Cyclopropane isomerizes into propene when heated to 500°C in the gas
phase. The extent of conversion for various initial pressures has been followed
by gas chromatography by allowing the reaction to proceed for a time with
various initial pressures:
pylTorr 200-200 400-400-600 600
ts 100 200-100-200 100-200
piTorr 180173373347 559520
where py is the initial pressure and p is the final pressure of cyclopropane.
