Question
For which type of reactions, order and molecularity have the same value?
✓
Answer
Elementary reactions have same value of order and molecularity. Elementary reaction is chemical reaction in which one or more reactants racts directly to form product in a single step with single transition state.
Example:
$\text{A + B}\xrightarrow{\ \ \ \ \ }\text{Products}$ Rate equation: [A]1[B]1 Order of reaction is sum of the cofficients of rate equation, $\therefore$ Order of reaction = 2 Molecularity = 2Need a full question paper?

Calculate emf of the following cell at 25°C:
Fe|Fe2+(0.001M)||H+(0.01M)|H2(g) (1bar)|Pt(s)
Eo(Fe2+| Fe) = –0.44 V Eo(H+|H2) = 0.00V
