Question

A chemist is trying to observe the decomposition of H₂O₂(l) into H₂O(l) and O₂(g). One reaction set-up involved 5.00 g H₂O₂ being placed in a 500-mL flask at 30 °C. Another set-up involved 5.00 g H₂O₂ being placed in a 1.0-L flask at 30 °C. Which explains why the second setup would have a slower reaction?

Accepted Answer

The second set-up has a lower concentration, hence a slower reaction.

Answer

The second set-up has a higher concentration, hence a slower reaction.

Answer

There is insufficient information to make a conclusion.
