For the reaction
BrO3- + 5 Br- + 6 H+ ---> 3 Br2 + 3 H2O
at a particular time, -/[BrO3-]// t = 1.5 10-2 M/s.
What is -/[Br-]//t at the same instant?

Question 2
Question: The reaction
A + 2 B ---> products
has been found to have the rate law,
rate = k [A] [B]2.

While holding the concentration of A constant, the concentration of B is increased from x to 3x.
Predict by what factor {an integer multiple} the rate of reaction increases.

Question 3 Multiple Choice
Question: Nitric oxide gas (NO) reacts with chlorine gas according to the equation
