Question : 21
Total: 35
(a) The conversion of molecule A to B followed second order kinetics. If concentration of A increased to three times, how will it affect the rate of formation of B ?
(b) Define Pseudo first order reaction with an example
(a) Reaction is A B for second order kinetics
(Rate )1=K[A]2
(Rate )2=K[3A]2=9K[A]2
(Rate )2=9×(Rate )1
So the rate of formation of B will increase by 9 times.
(b) The reaction that have higher order true rate law but are found to behave as first order are known as pseudo first order reactions.
Example : Consider the acid hydrolysis of methyl acetate.
CH3COOCH3(ag)+H2O(e) CH3COOH(ag)+ CH3OH(ag)
