प्रश्न
Why does the rate of any reaction generally decreases during the course of the reaction?
उत्तर
The rate of a reaction depends on the concentration of reactants. As the reaction progresses, the concentration of reactants decreases because the reactants start getting converted to products. Hence the rate decreases.
