When zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid, it produces hydrogen gas. As the reaction proceeds, why does the rate of production of
2 answers:
Answer: b. The concentration of the reactants decreases.
Explanation: Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.
k= rate constant
x = order with respect to
y = order with respect to
Thus when concentration of reactants decrease, the rate of the reaction decreases.
