Cyclopentene, C,H, is a colorless liquid at room temperature that is used in the synthesis of plastics. When heated well above its boiling point, this compound decomposes to hydrogen gas and cyclopentadiene. C,H,() C,H (g) + H,(g) In three separate experiments, a sample of cyclopentene in a sealed vessel was heated to 825 K, and the initial pressure of cyclopentene (t = 0 s) and final total pressure in the vessel (t = 300 s) were recorded.
