Chapter 12, Problem 12.35SP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The average rate of disappearance of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ during the given time interval of $\text{0 to 500 s}$ has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Rate of reaction:

The rate of a reaction is defined by the change in concentration of substrate (reactant) or target (product) with change in time.

$\text{Rate}\text{=}\frac{\text{Concentration}\text{change}\left(\text{in}\text{reactant}\text{or}\text{product}\right)}{\text{Time}\text{change}}$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The average rate of disappearance of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ during the given time interval of $100\text{ to 400 s}$ has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Rate of reaction:

The rate of a reaction is defined by the change in concentration of substrate (reactant) or target (product) with change in time.

$\text{Rate}\text{=}\frac{\text{Concentration}\text{change}\left(\text{in}\text{reactant}\text{or}\text{product}\right)}{\text{Time}\text{change}}$

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The average rate of disappearance of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ during the given time interval of $200\text{ to 300 s}$ has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Rate of reaction:

The rate of a reaction is defined by the change in concentration of substrate (reactant) or target (product) with change in time.

$\text{Rate}\text{=}\frac{\text{Concentration}\text{change}\left(\text{in}\text{reactant}\text{or}\text{product}\right)}{\text{Time}\text{change}}$
