In a reaction , A+Brarr Product , rate is doubled, and rate increases by a factor of 8 when the concentrations of both the reactants (A and B ) are doubled , rate law for the reaction can be written as -

Answer»

rate = k [A] [B]
rate `=k [A]^(2)[B]`
rate = `k [A][B]^(2)`
rate `=k[A]^(2)[B]^(2)`

Solution :`A+Brarr` Product
`R=k[A]^(alpha)[B]^(BETA)""...[1]`
`2r=k[A]^(alpha)[2B]^(beta)""...[2]`
`8R=k[2A]^(alpha)[2B]^(beta)""...[3]`
Now , by dividing EQUATION (1) by equation (2) we get
`(r)/(2r)=(k[A]^(alpha)[B]^(beta))/(k[A]^(alpha)[2B]^(beta))`
or, `(1)/(2)=(1)/(2^(beta))`
or, `2^(1)=2^(beta) " or, "beta=1`
Again by dividing equation (2) by equation (3) we get
`(2r)/(8r)=(k[A]^(alpha).[2B]^(beta))/(k[2A]^(alpha).[2B]^(beta))`
or, `(1)/(2^(2))=(1)/(2^(alpha)) " or, " 2^(2)=2^(alpha)`
or,`alpha=2`
So, rate equation will be : `r=k[A]^(2).[B]`

ANSWER :A
3.

In a reaction ,A + B toProduct , rate is doubled when the concentration of B is doubled ,and rate increases by a factor of 8 when the concentrations of both the reactants (A and B) are doubled , rate law for the reaction can be written as

Answer»

RATE = `K[A] [B]^(2)`
Rate = k `[A]^(2) [B]^(2)`
Rate = k [A] [B]
Rate= `k [A]^(2) [B]`

Solution :
That MEANS order of reaction with respect to B is 1 and w.r.t. A is 2
Hence , Rate = `k [A]^(2) [B]^(1)`
4.

In a reaction ,A + B to C, the rate expression is R = K[A] [B]^(2) . If the concentration of both the reactants is doubled at constant volume then the rate of reaction will be

Answer»

Eight TIMES
DOUBLE
Quadruple
TRIPLE

Solution :For the REACTION `[A + B to C]`
Rate = R = `K[A][B]^(2)`
If [A] = [2A] and [B] = [2B]
then new Rate = `R' = K[2A] [2B]^(2)`
`(R')/(R) = (K[2A][2B]^(2))/(K[A][B]^(2)) implies (R')/(R) = 8 implies R = ' = 8R`.
