Nitrogen monoxide can be removed from gas-fired power plant emissions by reaction with methane as follows: $$\mathrm{CH}4(\mathrm{g})+4\mathrm{NO}(\mathrm{g})?2\mathrm{N}2(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{CO}2(\mathrm{g})+2\mathrm{H}2\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{g})$$ Nitrogen monoxide concentration was recorded as a function of time as the reaction proceeded: (a) Calculate the average rate of decomposition of NO for the $$0.0$$ to $$25.0$$ second time interval. (b) Based on the [NO] data, determine the average rate of formation of N2 for the same $$0.0$$ to $$25.0$$ second time interval. (c) Calculate the general reaction rate for the $$75.0$$ to $$100.0$$ second time interval.
