A reaction is of second order with respect to a reactant. How is the rate of reaction affected if the concentration of the reactant is (i) doubled(ii)reduced to half ?
A reaction is of second order with respect to a reactant. How is the rate of reaction affected if the concentration of the reactant is (i) doubled
(ii)
reduced to half ?
Marking-scheme solution
(i)
Rate = k[2R]$\displaystyle 2$
Rate=$\displaystyle 4$ times
(ii)
Rate = k[R/$\displaystyle 2$]$\displaystyle 2$
Rate = ¼ times
