Options
- A7
- B6
- C8
- D5
Correct answer
B. 6
Step-by-step solution
aligned Rate of disappearance & = -d [ MnO ₄⁻ ] d t & =2.28 10⁻³ M / s aligned From the reaction, aligned & - 1 2 d [ MnO ₄⁻ ] d t = 1 2 [2.28 10⁻³ ] ...(i) & - 1 2 d [ MnO ₄⁻ ] d t = 1 5 d I₂ d t & - 5 2 d [ MnO ₄⁻ ] d t = d I₂ d t ...(ii) aligned Substituting the value of Eq. (i) in (ii) aligned & + 5 2 2.28 10⁻³= d I₂ d t & =5.7 10⁻³ M / s & Nearest integer value =6 10⁻³ M / s aligned
