Answer:

[HI] = 0.097 M

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 HI(g) ⇄ H₂(g) + I₂(g)

The order of reaction for HI is 1. Thus, we can calculate the concentration of HI ([HI]) at certain time using the following expression:

ln [HI] = ln [HI]₀ - k. t

where,

[HI]₀ is the initial concentration of HI

k is the rate constant

t is the time elapsed

When [HI]₀ = 0.440 M and t = 0.210 s, the concentration of HI is

ln [HI] = ln (0.440) - 7.21 s⁻¹ × 0.210 s

ln [HI] = -2.33

[HI] = 0.097 M
