For a reaction A+B C+D , if concentration of A is doubled without altering that of B , rate doubles. If concentration of B is increased nine-times without altering that of A , rate triples. Order of the reaction is
Options
- A2
- B1
- C1 1 2
- D1 1 3
Correct answer
C. 1 1 2
Step-by-step solution
If [A] double's then, r_ l =2 r If [B] increased 9 times then, r₂=3 r Order w.r.t. A is 1 and order w.r.t B is 1 2 . Order of reaction =1+ 1 2 =1 1 2 .
