A chemical engineer is studying the rate of this reaction. NH₄OH(aq) → NH₃(aq) + H₂O(aq). She fills a reaction vessel with NH₄OH and measures its concentration. What is the purpose of her study?
1) To determine the rate constant of the reaction
2) To investigate the effect of temperature on the reaction rate
3) To analyze the products formed during the reaction
4) To study the effect of catalyst on the reaction rate
