Assume that each tablet's mass was 1,000 mg, and remember that you used 0.200 L of water each time. Compute the reaction rate to the nearest whole number using the formula below.

For every temperature you use the formula given by the question.

at 3°C you have:

Reaction rate = (1000/0.2)/138.5 = 36 mg/L/sec

at 24°C you have:

Reaction rate = (1000/0.2)/34.2 = 146 mg/L/sec

at 40°C you have:

Reaction rate = (1000/0.2)/26.3 = 190 mg/L/sec

at 65°C you have:

Reaction rate = (1000/0.2)/14.2 = 352 mg/L/sec

Explanation:

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
