The graph shows the volume of a gaseous product formed during two trials of a reaction. A diferent concentration of reactant was used during each trial, whereas the other factors were kept constant. Trial 2 Amount of Product Trial 1 Time Which of the following statements explains which trial has a lower concentration of the reactant? O Trial 1, because the average rate of the reaction is lower. O Trial 1, because this reaction lasted for a longer duration than Trial 2. O Trial 2, because this reaction was initially fast and later slowed down. O Trial 2, because the volume of product formed per unit time was higher​

A). Trial 1, because the average rate of the reaction is lower.

Explanation:

The first sentence elaborates that 'trial 1 had a lower level of concentration of the reactant that eventually led the reaction's average rate to fall.'

A trial having a higher level of concentration of a specific reactant will cause the concentration's average rate to rise. As per the graph provided, trial 2's average reaction rate is higher which shows that its concentration is greater and more reactive. However, the opposite happens in trial 1 where the amount of reactant is lesser in the concentration that leads the concentration to possess a lower rate of reaction. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

out of these options:

ability to burn paper

pure sodium reacting violently with water

the boiling point of water

helium does not tend to react with anything

i would say this is a physical property:

helium does not tend to react with anything

why? :

i said helium does not tend to react with anything because well, it reacts to ! but ability to burn paper, pure sodium reacting violently with water, & the boiling point of water are chemical or

physical properties: the properties of a substance that can be observed without changing the chemical makeup of the substance

chemical properties: properties of a substance relating to the chemical nature and reactivity of the substance
