Question

Given the formula 1/[NO2]=kt+1/[NO2]0 solve for [NO2]0

Answer 1

So we are given the formula:

`(1)/([NO_(2)])= (kt+1)/([NO_(2)]_(0))`

Assuming that 'kt + 1' is one term, since it wasn't too clear in the question.

Then we multiply
`[NO_(2)]_(0)` on both sides to cancel out the right side, and bring it to the numerator on the left side:

`([NO_(2)]_(0))/([NO_(2)]) =kt+1`

And now we multiply
`[NO_(2)]` to both sides to cancel out the left side, and bring it to the numerator essentially on the right side:

`[NO_(2)]_(0)=(kt+1)[NO_(2)]`

And now we have the equation solved for
`[NO_(2)]_(0)`.
