We are asked to order three rates from fastest to slowest:
(i) The average rate of the reaction between 0 s and 600 s, (ii) the instantaneous rate at t = 0 s, and (iii) the instantaneous rate at t = 600 s.
In the graph, it is shown that the concentration of C4H9Cl was measured at various times.
In the figure on the left, order the following three rates from fastest to slowest:
(i) The average rate of the reaction between 0 s and 600 s,
(ii) the instantaneous rate at t = 0 s, and
(iii) the instantaneous rate at t = 600 s.
You should not have to do any calculations.
