In a reaction $R \to P$,the concentration $[M]$ obtained at different times $(t)$ are shown in the following table. Calculate the average rate $r_{av}$ of the reaction.
Time $t$ $(s)$ $0$ $5$ $10$ $20$ $30$
Concentration $(mol \ L^{-1})$ $160 \times 10^{-3}$ $80 \times 10^{-3}$ $40 \times 10^{-3}$ $10 \times 10^{-3}$ $3.5 \times 10^{-3}$

(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 $(mol \ L^{-1} \ s^{-1})$
$0-5$ $0.016$
$5-10$ $0.008$
$10-20$ $0.003$
$20-30$ $0.00065$

What is the rate of reaction?

For the reaction $2SO_2 + O_2 \to 2SO_3$,the rate of disappearance of $O_2$ is $2.0 \times 10^{-4} \ mol \ L^{-1}s^{-1}$. The rate of appearance of $SO_3$ is:

In the following reaction: $xA \to yB$,$\log \left[ -\frac{d[A]}{dt} \right] = \log \left[ \frac{d[B]}{dt} \right] + \log 2$,where the negative sign indicates the rate of disappearance of the reactant. Thus,$x : y$ is:

In the reaction,$N_{2} + 3H_{2} \longrightarrow 2NH_{3}$,the rate of disappearance of $H_{2}$ is $0.02 \ M/s$. The rate of appearance of $NH_{3}$ is (in $M/s$)

For the reaction $2 NO_{(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow 2 NO_{2(g)}$,the rate of formation of $NO_2$ is $\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt} = 0.052 \ mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$. Calculate the rate of disappearance of $O_2$,i.e.,$-\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}$.
