Question

Consider a reaction A+R Product. The rate of this reaction is measured to be k[A][R] . At the start of the reaction, the concentration of R,[R]₀ , is 10 -times the concentration of A,[A]₀ . The reaction can be considered to be a pseudo first order reaction with assumption that k[R]=k^ is constant. Due to this assumption, the relative error (in %) in the rate when this reaction is 40 % complete, is _______ [ k and k^
