Average rate of reaction = −Δ[R]Δt
⟹−[R]2−[R]1t2−t1 ⟹−0.02−0.0325=4×10−4M min−1
Also, it can be expressed in seconds as:
Average rate of reaction=4×10−460=6.67×10−6
For the reaction R → P, the concentration of a reactant changes from 0.03 M to 0.02 M in 25 minutes. Calculate the average rate of reaction using units of time both in minutes and seconds.
