Consider the data below for the reaction X products.

Time (in seconds)	[X] (in mol L1)
0	2.4500
1.53E3	1.6384
3.06E3	1.0956
4.59E3	0.7327
6.12E3	0.4899

Note: You will have to determine the order of the reaction before you can answer parts (b)-(d) of this question.

For parts (a), (c), and (d): Enter your answer accurate to three significant figures. Do not include units in your answer, but use concentrations in mol L¹ and time in seconds.

(a) What is the average rate of consumption of X between 1.53E3 s and 4.59E3 s?

(b) What is the order of the reaction? (Enter an integer, or a fraction, e.g. 1/2, 3/2, etc.)

(c) What is the value of the rate constant, k ?

(d) What is the instantaneous rate of consumption of X at 4.59E3 s?
