Q

READ QUESTION CAREFULLY

In a reaction, 2A —-> Products, the concentration of A decreases from 0.5 mol L-1 to 0.4 molL-1 in 10 minutes. Calculate the rate during this interval?

average rate

A
  1. Rate = -1/2 Δ[R]/Δt
  2. Δ[R] = 0.4 -0.5
    =- 0.1
  3. rate = 1/2 x 0.1 /10
    = 5 x 10^-3 mol L-1 s-1

divide carefully

Q

.For the reaction R—>P, the concentration of reactant changes from 0.03 M to 0.02 M in 25 minutes. Calculate the average rate of reaction using units of time both in minutes and seconds.

average rate

A
  1. Δ[R] = 0.02 - 0.03
    = - 0.01
    Δt = 25 min
    ∴ rate = - Δ[R]/Δt
    =0.01/ 25
    = 4 x 10^-4 mol L^-1 min^-1
  2. in sec
    rate = - Δ[R]/Δt
    =0.01/ 25 X60 = 6.66 x 10^-6 mol L^-1 s-1

Q

The conversion of molecules X to Y follows second order kinetics. If concentration of X is increased to three times how will it affect the rate of formation of Y ?

A
  1. the reaction is : X—>Y
  2. According to rate law,
    rate = k[X]2
  3. If [X] is increased to 3 times, then the new rate is
    rate’ = k[3X]2
    rate’ = 9 k [X]2 = 9 rate
    Thus, rate of reaction becomes 9 times and hence rate of formation of Y increases 9-

Pseudo first-order reaction

A

a second-order or bimolecular reaction that is made to behave like a first-order reaction.

effective collision

why proper orientation needed?

A
  1. molecules should collide with sufficient kinetic energy (threshold energy)
  2. proper orientation
    to faciliate breaking of bonds between reating species and formation of new bonds to form products
