4.17 (i) Average rate of reaction over interval is [change in concentration]/ [time taken] e.
[0.31 - 0.17] / [60-30] = 0.00467 mol L-1 sec-1
(ii) the pseudo first-order rate constant can be calculated by K = (2.303/t) log (Ci/Ct)
where K is Rate constant,
t is time taken,
Ci is initial concentration
Ct is Concentration at time t.
K = (2.303/30) log (0.55/0.31)
? K = 1.9 * 10-2 sec-1
(i) Average rate between 30 to 60 sec is 0.00467 mol L-1sec-1
(ii) Pseudo first order rate constant is 1.* 10-2sec-1

Reaction rate is used to measure how fast or slow reactions occur per unit time. The rate constant is a proportionality factor that remains constant for every reaction.
Yes, in elementary reactions, order and molecularity can be the same, but this is not always the case because order is an experimental quantity, and molecularity is a theoretical concept.
Reaction Kinetics, also known as chemical kinetics, is the study of the rate of chemical reaction and the factors affecting the reaction rate, such as temperature, concentration, and catalyst.
