Question
Decrease in concentration of reactant or increase in concentration of product per unit time is called rate of reaction. lt is of two types:
where, dC = infinitely small change in concentration
dt = infinitely small change in time.
For a reaction of the type, $m_1A + m_2B → n_1C + n_2D$
Rate of reaction is given as
$\frac{1}{\text{m}_1}\frac{\text{d[A]}}{\text{dt}}=-\frac{1}{\text{m}_2}\frac{\text{d[B]}}{\text{dt}}=+\frac{1}{\text{n}_1}\frac{\text{d[C]}}{\text{dt}}=+\frac{1}{\text{n}_2}\frac{\text{d[D]}}{\text{dt}}$
In these questions (Q. No. i-iv), a statement of assertion followed by a statement ofreason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.
- Instantaneous rate of reaction: Rate of change of concentration of reactant or product at a particular time is called instantaneous rate of reaction.
where, dC = infinitely small change in concentration
dt = infinitely small change in time.
- Average rate of reaction: Ratio of change in concentration and time required for the change is average rate of reaction.
For a reaction of the type, $m_1A + m_2B → n_1C + n_2D$
Rate of reaction is given as
$\frac{1}{\text{m}_1}\frac{\text{d[A]}}{\text{dt}}=-\frac{1}{\text{m}_2}\frac{\text{d[B]}}{\text{dt}}=+\frac{1}{\text{n}_1}\frac{\text{d[C]}}{\text{dt}}=+\frac{1}{\text{n}_2}\frac{\text{d[D]}}{\text{dt}}$
In these questions (Q. No. i-iv), a statement of assertion followed by a statement ofreason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.
- Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
- Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
- Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
- Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
- Assertion: The kinetics of the reaction, $\text{mA}+\text{nB}+\text{pC}\rightarrow\text{m}'\text{ X}+\text{n}'\text{ Y}+\text{p}'\text{ Z}$ obey the rate expression as $\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dt}}=\text{k}[\text{A}]^\text{m}[\text{B}]^\text{n}.$
- Assertion: Instantaneous rate of reaction is equal to $\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dt}}.$
- Assertion: For the reaction, $\text{RCl}+\text{NaOH}\rightarrow\text{ROH}+\text{NaCl},$ the rate of reaction is reduced to half on reducing the concentration of RCl to half.
- Assertion: ln rate law, unlike in the expression for equilibrium constants, the exponents for concentrations do not necessarily match the stoichiometric coefficients.
- Assertion: ln a reaction, $2A + B → A_2B$, the reactant B will disappear at twice the rate as A will decrease.
