Iron(III) chloride is reduced by tin(II) chloride.
the concentration of Fe3+ ion at the beginning of an experiment was 0.03586M. After 4.00 min it was 0.02638M. What is the average rate of reaction of FeCl3 in this time interval?
Can someone help me figure this one out please
worked th same way as change in molarity per 60 sec above.
so it would be .00948/240
right
Yes
To calculate the average rate of reaction of FeCl3, we need to determine the change in concentration of Fe3+ ion over the given time interval. The average rate of reaction can be found using the formula:
Average rate of reaction = (Change in concentration of Fe3+) / (Change in time)
In this case, the change in concentration of Fe3+ ion is calculated as:
Change in concentration = Final concentration - Initial concentration
= 0.02638 M - 0.03586 M
= -0.00948 M
Always remember to pay attention to the sign of the change in concentration, as it gives us information about whether the concentration is increasing or decreasing.
Now, we substitute the values into the formula:
Average rate of reaction = (-0.00948 M) / (4.00 min)
Finally, we can calculate the average rate of reaction:
Average rate of reaction = -0.00948 M / 4.00 min
≈ -0.00237 M/min
Therefore, the average rate of reaction of FeCl3 in this time interval is approximately -0.00237 M/min.
