(a) A reaction is second order in A and first order in . (i) Write the differential rate equation. (ii) How is the rate affected on increasing the concentration of A three times? (iii) How is the rate affected when the concentrations of both A and B are doubled? (b) A first order reaction takes minutes for decomposition. Calculate this reaction. Given OR (a) For a first order reaction, show that time required for completion is twice the time required for the completion of of reaction. (b) Rate constant ' ' of a reaction varies with temperature ' ' according to the equation: Where is the activation energy. When a graph is plotted for Vs. , a straight line with a slope of is obtained. Calculate ' ' for the reaction.
Solution:
(a) (i) Differential Rate equation: (ii) Let if increases three times ∴ Rate From eqn (i) and eqn (ii) rate Rate The rate becomes 9 times when the concentration of B is tripled. (iii) If and is doubled then From eqn (i) and eqn (ii) Rate Rate The rate becomes eight times when the concentration of both A and B is doubled. OR (i) For the first order reaction: and (b)
