Assertion : The rate of the reaction is the rate of change of concentration of a reactant or a product.
Reason : Rate of reaction remains constant during the course of reaction.

The concentration of a reactant changes from $0.1 \, mol \, L^{-1}$ to $0.095 \, mol \, L^{-1}$ in $10 \, s$. Calculate the rate of reaction.

For the reaction $2P + Q \to R$. If the rate of appearance of $R$ is $0.5 \ mol \ L^{-1} \ h^{-1}$,then the rate of disappearance of $P$ and $Q$ are:

For the reaction,$2N_2O_{5(g)} \rightarrow 4NO_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)}$,the rate of formation of $O_2$ is $0.032 \ g \ h^{-1}$. What is the rate of conversion of $N_2O_5$ in $g \ h^{-1}$?

For the reaction,$NO_{2(g)} + CO_{(g)} \rightarrow NO_{(g)} + CO_{2(g)}$,the rate of formation of $NO_{(g)}$ is $Y$ (in $mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$). Find the rate of disappearance of $CO_{(g)}$ (in $mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$)?
