In the case of the decomposition of acetaldehyde, it tells you something about the reaction mechanism, in the pressure regime considered. Pressure can affect the order of reaction kinetics, cf. Lindemann-Hinshelwood mechanism. Secondly, nothing in the information supplied tells you the temperature at which these reactions are taking place. N2O5 is a gas above about 50C.
