Interpretation:
The reason of dependence of average rate of a reaction on the length of the time interval needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Answer to Problem 7SSC
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The average rate of reaction depends on the time interval.
The average rate of reaction represents the change in concentration of reactant with change in time.
It can be written as:
Here:
- A = reactant
- t = time
Thus average rate is the change in concentration of reactant with time therefore it is inversely proportional to change in the time interval.
