Answer:

a. time (on the x axis)

b. the product formed - molecules/minute (on the y axis)

Step-by-step explanation:

The independent variable is the one you control while carrying out the experiment, you can adjust for it as needed and how much ever needed. The dependent variable is the one which you cannot control or vary at you own will during the experiment, it is essentially the data you collect from running the experiment.
