1.

In the reaction,P + Q → R + Sthe time taken for 75% reaction of P is twice the time taken for 50% reaction of P. The concentration of Q varies with reaction time as shown in the figure. The overall order of the reaction is(A) 2 (B) 3 (C) 0 (D) 1

Answer»

(D) 1

Overall order of reaction can be decided by the data given t75% = 2t50% 

∴ It is a first order reaction with respect to P. 

From graph [Q] is linearly decreasing with time, i.e. order of reaction with respect to Q is zero and the rate expression is r = k [P]1 [Q]0 .
