On increasing the temperature by 30 degree centigrade, rate of a chemical reaction becomes 15.625 times the initial rate. If every 10 degree centigrade increment in temperature makes the similar multiple change (x), then x is equal to
30 degree centigrade means three laps of 10 degree centigrade
According to the given condition
(initial rate) . x . x . x = 15.625 (initial rate) Or x3 = 15.625
Or x = 2.5
Pure mathematics is the world's best game. It is more absorbing than chess, more of a gamble than poker, and lasts longer than Monopoly. It's free. It can be played anywhere - Archimedes did it in a bathtub.
