the rate of disappearance of Br- at some moment in time was determined to be 3.5 x 10-4 M/s. What is the rate of appearance of Br2 at that same moment

1.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol M/s

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced reaction

2 Br⁻ ⇒ Br₂

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

The molar ratio of Br⁻ to Br₂ is 2:1.

Step 3: Calculate the rate of appearance of Br₂

The rate of disappearance of Br⁻ at some moment in time was determined to be 3.5 × 10⁻⁴ M/s. The rate of appearance of Br₂ is:

3.5 × 10⁻⁴ mol Br⁻/L.s × (1 mol Br₂/2 mol Br⁻) = 1.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol Br₂/L.s

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.

oxygen, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.

they're all from the same group as sulfur (group 16).
