Answer to Problem 1STP
D. the amount of product formed in a certain period of time.
Explanation of Solution
D. The amount of product formed in a certain period of time.
The correct options are as follows:
- The speed at which a reaction takes place.
- The change in concentration of a reactant per unit time.
- The change in concentration of a product per unit time.
Average rate is the concentration of reactant over a period of time.
Negative sign out in front line which corrects for decreases in concentration of reactant to yield a +ve average reaction rate.
Reaction rate can also define amount of product.
Change in product concentration is positive. Rate of reaction can also define in terms of change in concentration of the product per unit time.
