12) Ethane dissociates into methyl radicals by a first‐order reaction at elevated temperature.a) If a 250.0 mg sample of ethane is confined to a 500.0 mL reaction vessel and heated to 700.0 C, what is the initial rate of ethanol decomposition if the rate constant at thattemperature is 5.5 x 10‐4 s‐1.b) Suggest a change you could make to the scenario in part a that would result in an increase of the initial rate by a factor of 4. Provide a mathematical explanation of your suggestion.
