Consider the general reaction 5Br-(aq)+ Br O₃-(aq)+ 6H+(aq)→ 3Br₂(aq)+ 3 H₂O(aq) For this reaction,which is equal to Δ[Br2]/Δt?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rate of formation of Br2 is related to the rate of consumption of Br- by the stoichiometry of the reaction. Since 5 moles of Br- produce 3 moles of Br2, the rate of formation of Br2 is (3/5) times the rate of consumption of Br-, which simplifies to 0.6.
