Consider,

#Cl_2 + 3F_2 rightleftharpoons 2ClF_3#

where the rate of each constituent's appearance/disappearance is related to the preceding stoichiometry.

Hence,

#3*(Delta[Cl_2])/(Deltat) = (Delta[F_2])/(Deltat) approx (-0.036M)/s#, and

#-2*(Delta[Cl_2])/(Deltat) = (Delta[ClF_3])/(Deltat) approx (0.024M)/s#
