In a pseudo first order reaction in water,the following results were obtained:
$t / s$ $0$ $30$ $60$ $90$
$[A] / mol \ L^{-1}$ $0.55$ $0.31$ $0.17$ $0.085$

Calculate the average rate of reaction between the time interval $30$ to $60 \ s$.

(A) The average rate of reaction between the time interval $30 \ s$ to $60 \ s$ is given by the formula:
$\text{Average rate} = -\frac{\Delta [A]}{\Delta t}$
$= -\frac{[A]_{60} - [A]_{30}}{60 - 30}$
$= -\frac{0.17 - 0.31}{30}$
$= -\frac{-0.14}{30}$
$= 4.67 \times 10^{-3} \ mol \ L^{-1} \ s^{-1}$
