4. Butadiene reacts to form a dimer according to the equation 2C4H6g) → C8H12(g).
The rate constant k = 3.68 at 303K for this reaction. If the initial pressure of the
pure feed = 944.75 mmHg, and after 71.0 min, the pressure of the mixture was
found to be 502.985mmHg at 303K, determine the order of the reaction and
express the units of the rate constant in terms of moles, litres and minutes.
