zero order integegrated rate law? 

[At]=-kt + [Ao]

400

For the reaction:

2H2(g) + 2NO (g) → N2(g) + 2H2O (g)

The rate of disappearance of NO when the rate of appearance of N2 is 3.0x10-4 M/s.

What is (-)6.0x10-4 M/s?

*the negative is only needed when the question doesn't state "rate of disappearance"
