The breakdown of a certain pollutant X in sunlight is known to follow first-order kinetics. An atmospheric scientist studying the process fills a 30.0L reaction flask with a sample of urban air and finds that the partial pressure of X in the flask decreases from 0.48atm to 0.17atm over 70.minutes.Calculate the initial rate of decomposition of X, that is, the rate at which X was disappearing at the start of the experiment. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
