Question

Determine the rate of reaction at 50 C when the loss of mass is 0.95 g. Show your working. Give your answer to 2 significant figures.

Answer 1

This problem is providing information about the loss of mass for a reaction 50 °C as a function of the time elapse. Thus, when taking a look at the given graph, we can trace a horizontal line on the y-axis at 0.95 g in order to intercept it with the curve, and hence, figure out the time at which that loss of mass takes place.

Thus, we can see that when the loss of mass hits 0.95 g, the corresponding time on the graph is about 80 seconds, and hence, the rate of reaction turns out to be:

$r=\frac{0.95g}{80s}\\\\r=0.012\frac{g}{s}$

Which has two significant figures as required.
