For the given reaction: 4A+3B→6C+9D
The rate of reaction is related to the rates of individual components as follows:
Rate=−41dtd[A]=−31dtd[B]=61dtd[C]=91dtd[D]
Given:
Rate of formation of C, dtd[C]=6×10−2 mol L−1 s−1
Rate of disappearance of A, −dtd[A]=4×10−2 mol L−1 s−1
Rate of reaction =61×dtd[C]=61×(6×10−2)=1×10−2 mol L−1 s−1
Rate of disappearance of B =−dtd[B]=3×Rate of reaction=3×(1×10−2)=3×10−2 mol L−1 s−1
The amount of B consumed in an interval of Δt=10 s is:
Δ[B]=(−dtd[B])×Δt=(3×10−2 mol L−1 s−1)×10 s=30×10−2 mol L−1
