Chemistry Question on Chemical Kinetics
In a pseudo first order hydrolysis of ester in water, the following results were obtained. What will be the average rate of reaction between the time interval 30 to 60 seconds?
A
1.91×10−2 s−1
B
4.67×10−3molL−1s−1
C
1.98×10−3 s−1
D
2.07×10−2 s−1
Answer
4.67×10−3molL−1s−1
Explanation
Solution
Average rate during the time interval 30−60s. Rate=−t2−t1C2−C1 =−60−30(0.17−0.31) =300.41 =4.67×10−3 molL−1 s−1
