In the reaction, P+Q ? R+S The time taken for 75 \% reaction of P...
In the reaction, The time taken for reaction of is twice the time taken for reaction of . The concentration of varies with reaction time as shown in the figure. The overall order of the reaction is 

Options
- A2
- B3
- C0
- D1
Correct answer
D. 1
Step-by-step solution
For , if then This is true only for first order reaction. So, order with respect to is Further the graph shows that concentration of decreases with time. So rate, with respect to remains constant. Hence, it is zero order wrt Q. So, overall order is
