In the reaction, P+Q⟶?R+S\mathrm{P}+\mathrm{Q} \longrightarrow ? \mathrm{R}+\mathrm{S} The time taken for 75%75 \% reaction of PP is twice the time taken for 50%50 \% reaction of P\mathrm{P}. The concentration of Q\mathrm{Q} varies with reaction time as shown in the figure. The overall order of the reaction is In the reaction, P+Q ? R+S The time taken for 75 \% reaction of P is twice the time taken for 50 \% reaction of P . The

Correct answer

D. 1

Step-by-step solution

For P\mathrm{P}, if t50%=x\mathrm{t}_{50 \%}=\mathrm{x} then t75%=2x\mathrm{t}_{75 \%}=2 \mathrm{x} This is true only for first order reaction. So, order with respect to P\mathrm{P} is 1.1. Further the graph shows that concentration of Q\mathrm{Q} decreases with time. So rate, with respect to Q,\mathrm{Q}, remains constant. Hence, it is zero order wrt Q. So, overall order is 1+0=11+0=1
