Chemistry Question on Chemical Kinetics
In the reaction BrO3−(aq)+5Br−(aq)+6H+→3Br2(l)+3H2O(l) The rate of appearance of bromine (Br2) is related to rate of disappearance of bromide ions as following
A
dtd[Br2]=−53dtd[Br−]
B
dtd[Br2]=−35dtd[Br−]
C
dtd[Br2]=35dtd[Br−]
D
dtd[Br2]=53dtd[Br−]
Answer
dtd[Br2]=−53dtd[Br−]
Explanation
Solution
The correct option is(A): dtd[Br2]=−53dtd[Br−].
−41dtd(Br−)=−31dtd(Br2)
dtd(Br2)=−53dtd(Br−)
