### Reaction Rate Question#### Problem Statement:If the rate of formation of chlorine trifluoride (ClF₃) is 0.520 M/s, what is the rate of disappearance of F₂?#### Given Reaction:\[ \text{Cl}_2(g) + 3 \text{F}_2(g) \rightarrow 2 \text{ClF}_3(g) \]#### Options:- A. –1.56 M/s- B. –0.0433 M/s- C. –0.780 M/s- D. –0.173 M/s- E. –0.390 M/s#### Explanation:In this problem, we are asked to determine the rate at which fluorine gas (F₂) is consumed based on the given rate of formation of chlorine trifluoride (ClF₃).To solve this, we use the stoichiometry of the given reaction. The stoichiometric coefficients indicate the following relationships:- 2 moles of ClF₃ are formed per 3 moles of F₂ consumed.Therefore, we can set up a relationship between the rates of formation and disappearance as follows:\[ \frac{\Delta [\text{ClF}_3]}{\Delta t} \times \frac{3}{2} = -\frac{\Delta [\text{F}_2]}{\Delta t} \]Given:\[ \frac{\Delta [\text{ClF}_3]}{\Delta t} = 0.520 \text{ M/s} \]Thus:\[ 0.520 \text{ M/s} \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{\Delta [\text{F}_2]}{\Delta t} \]\[ 0.520 \times 1.5 = \frac{\Delta [\text{F}_2]}{\Delta t} \]\[ \frac{\Delta [\text{F}_2]}{\Delta t} = 0.780 \text{ M/s} \]Since the rate of disappearance is being asked for, which should be given as a negative rate of change:\[ \frac{\Delta [\text{F}_2]}{\Delta t} = -0.780 \text{ M/s} \]#### Correct Answer:C. –0.780 M/sThis calculation confirms that the rate of disappearance of F₂

The rate of reaction is expressed as, Cl2(g) + 3 F2(g) -----> 2 ClF3(g)
