The average rate of reaction over a given interval can be calculated by taking the difference of concentration on a particular given reactant, and dividing it by the total time. In this case, (1.00 M - 0.655 M)/30 s = 0.0115 M/s, or 0.0115 mol/L-s, and this is the final rate of reaction.

Hello!</h2>
The answer is:

<h2>
Why?</h2>
Since there is not information about the solute but only its mass, we need to assume that we are calculating the molar concentration of a solution or molarity. So, need to use the following formula:

Now, we know that the mass of the solute is equal 3.5 moles and the volume is equal to 1500 mL or 1.5L
Then, substituting into the equation, we have:

Have a nice day!
