Given information

Reaction given here:

 

This graph shows the concentration of H2O2 as a function of time.

 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.
The instantaneous rate of the reaction is the reaction rate at any particular point in time and is represented by the slope of the curve at that point in the concentration vs time graph. One can obtain the instantaneous rate from the slope of tangent to the curve at the point.

The instantaneous rate of the reaction at 30 s can be found by drawing a tangent to the point at the 30s on the curve.

The slope of the tangent will give the instantaneous rate.
