Part A: 47.8 mi/h

Part B: 0.072 M/s

Part C: 0.144 M/s

Explanation:

Part A

The average speed or velocity (V) is the variation of the space divided by the variation of the time:

V = (241 - 2) / (8 - 3)

V = 47.8 mi/h

Part B

As Part A, the average rate (r) of formation of I2 is the variation of the concentration divided by the variation of time:

r = (1.83 - 1.11) / (15 - 5)

r = 0.072 M/s

Part C

The rates of the substances are proportional of their number of moles (n) which are their coefficient, so:

rI2/nI2 = rHCl/nHCl

0.072/1 = rHCl/2

rHCl = 2*0.072

rHCl = 0.144 M/s
