Questions 32-34 refer to the following. 5 H2O2(aq) + 2 MnO4 −(aq) + 6 H+(aq) → 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l) — Kinetics Chemistry Question

Questions 32-34 refer to the following.

5 H₂O₂(aq) + 2 MnO₄ −(aq) + 6 H⁺(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 O₂(g)

In a titration experiment, H₂O₂(aq) reacts with aqueous MnO₄ −(aq) as represented by the equation above. The dark purple KMnO₄ solution is added from a buret to a colorless, acidified solution of H₂O₂(aq) in an Erlenmeyer flask. (Note: At the end point of the titration, the solution is a pale pink color.)

At a certain time during the titration, the rate of appearance of O₂(g) was 1.0 × 10^−3 mol/(L·s). What was the rate of disappearance of MnO₄ − at the same time?
