NEET Chemistry Rate of Reaction MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

For a reaction 2A → Products, if the concentration of A decreases from 0.5 mol L⁻¹ to 0.4 mol L⁻¹ in 10 minutes, what is the average rate of reaction in mol L⁻¹ s⁻¹?

A

67 × 10⁻⁴

B

0.001

C

8.33 × 10⁻³

D

0.05

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The average rate is calculated by the change in concentration over time. The decrease is 0.1 mol L⁻¹ over 10 minutes, which is 600 seconds. Therefore, the rate is (0.1 mol L⁻¹) / (600 s) = 1.67 × 10⁻⁴ mol L⁻¹ s⁻¹.
