In a reaction, 2A → Products, the concentration of A decreases from 0.5 mol L^–¹ to 0.4 mol L^–¹ in 10 minutes. Calculate the rate during this interval?

Question

In a reaction, 2A → Products, the concentration of A decreases from 0.5 mol L – 1 to 0.4 mol L – 1 in 10 minutes. Calculate the rate during this interval?

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Given-

Initial concentration(A₁) = 0.5M

Final concentration(A₂) = 0.4M

Time = 10 mins.

The formula for average rate of the reaction is,

→ Equation 1

∵ {A} = (A₂)-( A₁), the equation 1 is written as,

=

= 0.005 mol L^-1 min^-1

= 5 × 10^-3 mol L^-1 min^-1

The average rate of the reaction is 5 × 10^-3 mol L^-1 min^-1
