0.01 moles of sulphuryl chloride SO₂Cl₂(g) is taken in a sealed tube & heated to 400 K. It decomposes following 1st order kinetics according to reaction: SO₂Cl₂(g) → SO₂(g) + Cl₂(g) The tube is broken after 4 hours & gas passed through a 25 ml of an acidified 1 N iodine solution where all SO₂ is oxidised to SO2-. The resulting solution required 10 ml of 1 M Hypo solution. What is half life in hours.
