How do I convert from M to Torr?? The given rate constant is 8.72×10^-37 M^-1 s^-1
Please help, Thanks!

Molarity is moles / Litre……….” n/V”,
for ideal gases:
PV = nRT
P = n/V (RT)
P = M (RT)
================================
from M^-1 s^-1 to Torr^-1 s^-1
1 / P = 1 / [M (RT)]
1 / P = (1 / M) times 1 / (RT)
torr^-1sec^-1 = (8.72×10^-37 M^-1 s^-1) (1 / (62.306 Torr-Litres/ mol-K) (T)
assuming that it was done at 25C,….298 Kelvin,
would be:
torr^-1sec^-1 = (8.72×10^-37 M^-1 s^-1) (1 / (62.306 Torr-Litres/ mol-K) (298)
torr^-1sec^-1 = (8.72×10^-37 M^-1 s^-1) (1 / (18,567)
torr^-1sec^-1 = (8.72×10^-37 M^-1 s^-1) (5.386 X 10^-5)
torr^-1sec^-1 = 4.70 X 10^-41

Many good opinions already for this
