How would you solve this problem?
C4H8(g)--> 2C2H4
Determine the order of the reaction and the rate constant based on the following pressures, which were recorded when the reaction was carried out 430 C in a constant volume vessel.
Time (s) P(C4H8)(mmHg)
0 400
2,000 316
4,000 248
6,000 196
8,000 155
10,000 122
