The decomposition of dimethyl ether leads to the formation of CH4, H2 and CO and the rate is given by
Rate = k[CH3OCH3]3/2
The rate of reaction is followed by increase in pressure in a closed vessel, so the rate can also be expressed in terms of the partial pressure of dimethyl ether, i.e.,
Rate = k pCH3O CH3 3/2.
If the pressure is measured in bar and time in minutes, then what are the units of rate and rate constants?
