(N/A) The average rate of reaction is calculated using the formula: $r_{av} = -\frac{\Delta[R]}{\Delta t} = -\frac{[R]_{2} - [R]_{1}}{t_{2} - t_{1}}$.
$Time \ Interval \ (s)$ $Average \ Rate \ (mol \ L^{-1} s^{-1})$
$0-50$ $1.90 \times 10^{-4}$
$50-100$ $1.70 \times 10^{-4}$
$100-150$ $1.58 \times 10^{-4}$
$150-200$ $1.40 \times 10^{-4}$
$200-300$ $1.22 \times 10^{-4}$
$300-400$ $1.10 \times 10^{-4}$
$700-800$ $0.40 \times 10^{-4}$
