Calculate the overall order of a reaction which has the rate expression.

Answer»

SOLUTION :(a)Rate =`K[A]^((1)/(2)) [B]^((3)/(2))` (b)`k[A]^((3)/(2)) [B]^(-1)`
(a)Rate=`k[A]^(x) [B]^(y)`
ORDER =x+y
So, order =`(1)/(2)+(3)/(2)`= 2 i.e SECOND order .
(b)Rate =`k[A]^((3)/(2)) [B]^(-1)`
Order =x+y
`=(3)/(2)-1=(1)/(2)` i.e hald order .
