What is the rate of appearance of \(\mathrm{Z}\) in following reaction?
\(3 \mathrm{x} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{z}\), if rate of disappearance of \(\mathrm{x}\) is \(0.072 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)

  1. A \(0.072 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)
  2. B \(0.048 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)
  3. C \(0.024 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)
  4. D \(0.096 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(0.024 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(
3 \mathrm{x} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{Z}
\)
\(\frac{\text { Rate of disappearance of } x}{3}=\frac{\text { Rate of appearance of } \mathrm{Z}}{1}\)
Rate of appearance of \(\mathrm{Z}=\frac{1}{3} \times 0.072\) \(=0.024 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\).
