Deductive reasoning involves making broad observations and examining possibilities to reach a specific, logical conclusion, which is required in the formation of a hypothesis. Conversely, inductive reasoning involves taking specific observations and making broad generalisations from these. Therefore the answer is A.

.50 M KCl because 5% is the same as .05, which makes the .50M more concentrated.
A. We can calculate the initial concentrations of each by
the formula:
initial concentration ci = initial volume * initial
concentration / total mixture volume
where,
total mixture volume = 10 mL + 20 mL + 10 mL + 10 mL = 50
mL
ci (acetone) = 10 mL * 4.0 M / 50 mL = 0.8 M
ci (H+) = 20 mL * 1.0 M / 50 mL = 0.4 M (note: there is only 1 H+ per
1 HCl)
ci (I2) = 10 mL * 0.0050 M / 50 mL = 0.001 M
B. The rate of reaction is determined to be complete when
all of I2 is consumed. This is signified by complete disappearance of I2 color
in the solution. The rate therefore is:
rate of reaction = 0.001 M / 120 seconds
rate of reaction = 8.33 x 10^-6 M / s
