Question 47

Multiple Choice

In aqueous solution, hypobromite ion, BrO-, reacts to produce bromate ion, BrO3-, and bromide ion, Br-, according to the following chemical equation: 3BrO-(aq) → BrO3-(aq) + 2BR-(aq)
A plot of 1/[BrO-] vs. time is linear and the slope is equal to 0.056 L mol-1 s-1. If the initial concentration of BrO- is 0.80 mol L-1, how long will it take one-half of the BrO- ion to react?


A) 4.5 × 10-2 s
B) 7.1 s
