Interpretation:
The average rate of the reaction in millimoles per liter per microsecond is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The average rate of the reaction is referred to the change in the molar concentration in the distinct interval of time. Mathematically, the ratio of change in molar concentration of a reactant or a product to the change in the time interval gives the average
The average rate of consumption or the disappearance of reactant is negative. Mathematical expression is shown below.
The average rate of formation or the appearance of reactant is positive. Mathematical expression is shown below.

- According to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), waste material is classified as toxic and must be handled as hazardous if the lead concentration exceeds 5 mg/L. By adding chloride ion, the lead ion will precipitate as PbCl2, which can be separated from the liquid portion. Once the lead has been removed, the rest of the waste can be sent to a conventional waste treatment facility. How many grams of sodium chloride must be added to 500 L of a waste solution to reduce the concentration of the Pb2+ ion from 10 to 5 mg/L?arrow_forwardBecause calcium carbonate is a sink for CO32- in a lake, the student in Exercise 12.39 decides to go a step further and examine the equilibrium between carbonate ion and CaCOj.
