This answer is 24 because 2.17 x 10 -8 is 24 so that would be your answer
Answer:
Decreasing the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A
Explanation:
We know that one of the factors that affect the rate of reaction is the concentration of the reactants. The greater the concentration of reactants, the faster the rate of reaction (the greater the frequency of collision between reactants).
Hence, when we decrease the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A, the concentration of the solution increases and consequently more particles of molecule A are available to collide with particles of molecule B resulting in a higher rate of reaction.
Maybe this example could help you to understand this problem.

Note that it says oxygen "gas"
So you need the atomic mass of oxygen gas
Look at your periodic table, you'll see 15.9994 under oxygen
Oxygen gas has a formula of O2 therefore,
(15.9994) times 2= Oxygen gas atomic mass=31.9988
Mol= Mass/Atomic Mass
=62.3 g/ 31.9988 g/mol = 1.95 mol
now look at the ratio of C2H6 and O2, notice there is an invisible number beside each of them, at that "invisible number" is =1
1 C2H6 + 1 O2 -> products
this means that for 1 mol of C2H6, 1 mol of O2 has to react with it
Thus as we have 1.95 moles of O2, we need 1.95 moles of C2H6
