Chemistry Question on Rate of a Chemical Reaction
For an elementary reaction 2A+3B→4C+D the rate of appearance of C at time ?t? is 2.8×10−3molL−1S−1. Rate of disappearance of B at ?t? will be
A
34(2.8×10−3)molL−1S−1
B
43(2.8×10−3)molL−1S−1
C
2(2.8×10−3)molL−1S−1
D
41(2.8×10−3)molL−1S−1
Answer
43(2.8×10−3)molL−1S−1
Explanation
Solution
The given reaction is,
2A+3B→4C+D
So, −31dtd[B]=41dtd[c]
⇒−dtd[B]=43dtd[C]
=43(2.8×10−3)molL−1S−1
