Asked in Premeth Test 23 — Chemical Kinetics and Chemical Equilibrium (25 March 2025) 2025

The rate of reaction between two specific time intervals is?

Correct answer: C. Average rate

  • A. Instantaneous rate
  • B. Constant rate
  • C. Average rate
  • D. All of these

Explanation

The rate of reaction between two specific intervals is called the average rate of reaction because it is calculated by taking the change in the quantity of a reactant or product over that time interval and dividing it by the duration of the interval.

About Rate of Reaction

Reaction rate measures the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time. Questions connect rate with concentration, temperature, pressure, surface area, catalysts and nature of reactants, and may involve rate laws, reaction order, activation energy and collision theory. Rate describes speed, whereas equilibrium describes the final balance of opposing reactions.
