Rate law for a reaction between A and B is given by R = k [ ~A ]^ n [ ~B ]^ m If concentration of A is doubled and concentration of B is halved from their initial value, the ratio of new rate of reaction to the initial rate of reaction ( r₂ r₁ ) is
Options
- A2^ (n-m)
- B(n-m)
- C(m+n)
- D1 2^ m+n
Correct answer
A. 2^ (n-m)
Step-by-step solution
r ₁= k [ ~A ]^ n [ ~B ]^ m Now A is doubled & B is halved in concentration r ₂= k 2^ n [ ~A ]^ n [ ~B ]^ m 2^ m Now r₂ r₁ =2^ (n-m)
