|. Which line represented the most concentrated hydrochloric acid?
ii, Calculate the average rate of reaction over the frst 60 seconds for line B.
M1)
ii, Draw tangents tothe graph (line A) at 20 seconds and at 40 seconds and find the gradient (slope) by
drawing triangles (see page 128 for details of how to do ths). Deduce the rates of reaction at these times by
calulatng the value of each gradient (slope). Show your working, ia)
