Solutions

Expert Solution

Ans. Step 1: Order of reaction with respect to [B]:

Compare trial 1 and 2 – [A] remains constant while [B] varies

So, order of reaction with respect to B [Note: [B] varies while [A] kept constant] is given by-

            ([B]T2 / [B]T1)n = (rT2 / rT1) - equation 1

            Where, T1 and T2 represent trial 1 and 2 respectively.

                        r = rate of reaction.

                        [B] = concentration of B

                        n = order of reaction

Putting the values in equation 1-

            (0.02 / 0.01)n = (5.4 x 10-4) / (2.7 x 10-4)

            Or, (2)n = 2

            Hence, n = 1

Therefore, order of reaction with respect to [B] = 1      

Step 2: Order of reaction with respect to [A]:

Compare trial 1 and 3 – [A] varies while [B] remains constant.

So, order of reaction with respect to A is given by-

            ([A]T3 / [B]T1)n = (rT3 / rT1) - equation 1

Putting the values in equation 1-

            (0.03 / 0.15)n = (1.10 x 10-3) / (2.7 x 10-4)

            Or, (2)n = 4

            Hence, n = 2

Therefore, order of reaction with respect to [A] = 2

Step 3: Rate law is-

            r = k [A]2 [B]
