For the reaction 2A+B3C+D, A is consumed at 0.30Ms−1 at a certain instant. Select the correct statement(s).
AThe rate of reaction, defined as νi1dtd[i] with signed νi, is 0.30Ms−1.
BC is formed at 0.45Ms−1.
CB is consumed at 0.15Ms−1.
DD is formed at 0.45Ms−1.
Answer: B, C
The rate of reaction is ξ-dot =−21d[A]/dt and equals 0.30/2=0.15Ms−1. Hence B is consumed at 0.15 (coefficient 1), C is formed at 3×0.15=0.45, D at 0.15 (coefficient 1), so only the first two statements hold.
