The concentration of compound X is measured at different time intervals during the course of a chemical reaction. After plotting a graph of the concentration of X against time, shown below, the points labelled A-E on the graph have the following co-ordinates: A: x = 0 seconds; y = 0 mol L-1 B: x = 110 seconds; y = 71 mol L-1 C: x = 225 seconds; y = 92 mol L-1 D: x = 330 seconds; y = 126 mol L-1 E: x = 450 seconds; y = 120 mol L-1     What is the rate of the chemical reaction at point C?
