The balanced equation for the reaction of bromate ion with bromide in acidic solution is at a particular instant in time, the rate of disappearance of br– is 2.0 x 10⁻³ mol/l • s. what is the rate of appearance of br₂ at the same instant?

The rate of appearance of Br₂ at the same instant is 0.0012 mol/L.

Explanation:

The rate of disappearance of :

Rate of the reaction in terms of bromide ions : R

Rate of the reaction in terms of bromine gas : R

=3\times 0.0004 mol/L=0.0012 mol/L[/tex]

The rate of appearance of Br₂ at the same instant is 0.0012 mol/L.
