Question : 1
Total: 12
SECTION - A

Answer the following questions (Do any two):
(a) Identify the order of reaction from the following unit for its rate constant: Lmol−1 s−1
(b) The conversion of molecules A to B follow second order kinetics. If concentration of A is increased to three times, how will it affect the rate of formation of B ?
(c) Write the expression of integrated rate equation for zero order reaction.
Solution:  
(a) The unit Lmol−1 sec−1 for rate constant is the unit of second order reaction.
(b) For reaction A→B,
Rate of reaction (r)
=k[A]2.....1
If the concentration of reactant increased to three times.
Rate of reaction (r′)
=k[3A]2.....2
Thus, on dividing eq. 1 and 2 .
‌
r
r′
‌
=‌
k[A]2
k[3A]2

‌=‌
1
9

Therefore, rate of formation of B increases to nine times.
(c) Integrated rate equation for zero order reaction is
k=‌
[R0−R]
t

Where, k= rate constant
‌R0=‌ Initial concentration of reactant ‌
‌R=‌ Final concentration of reactant ‌
‌t=‌ time taken ‌
