In the first 85.0 s of this reaction, the concentration of no dropped from 1.12 m to 0.520 m .

What is rate of a reaction?

The speed at which a chemical reaction takes place is the rate of the reaction. It is the concentration change per unit time of a reactant in a reaction.

Since the concentration of NO reduces to half its initial concentration in 85 seconds that is from 1.12m to 0.520m, it can be said that 85 seconds is the half life interval for the reaction, <u>Hence on average, </u><u>half reaction</u><u> is completed in the time interval of </u><u>85 seconds</u><u>.</u>
