Mention the factors that affect the rate of a chemical reaction.


How does calcination differ from roasting?


What is the order of a reaction which has a rate expression; Rate = `"k"["A"]^(3/2)["B"]^1`?


In any unimolecular reaction:

(i) only one reacting species is involved in the rate determining step.

(ii) the order and the molecularity of slowest step are equal to one.

(iii) the molecularity of the reaction is one and order is zero.

(iv) both molecularity and order of the reaction are one.


For a general reaction A → B, plot of concentration of A vs time is given in figure. Answer the following question on the basis of this graph.

(i) What is the order of the reaction?

(ii) What is the slope of the curve?

(iii) What are the units of rate constant?


Assertion: Order and molecularity are same.

Reason: Order is determined experimentally and molecularity is the sum of the stoichiometric coefficient of rate determining elementary step.


Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:

The rate of reaction is concerned with decrease in the concentration of reactants or increase in the concentration of products per unit of time. It can be expressed as instantaneous rate at a particular instant of time and average rate over a large interval of time. A number of factors such as temperature, concentration of reactants, catalyst affect the rate of reaction. Mathematical representation of rate of a reaction is given by rate law:

Rate = k[A]x [B]y

x and y indicate how sensitive the rate is to change in concentration of A and B. Sum of x + y gives the overall order of a reaction.
When a sequence of elementary reactions gives us the products, the reaction is called complex reaction. Molecularity and order of an elementary reaction are same. Zero-order reactions are relatively uncommon but they occur under special conditions. All natural and artificial radioactive decay of unstable nuclei takes place by first-order kinetics.

  2. For a reaction \[\ce{A + B → Product}\], the rate law is given by, Rate = k[A]2 [B]1/2. What is the order of the reaction?    [1]
  3. How order and molecularity are different for complex reactions?    [1]
  4. A first-order reaction has a rate constant 2 × 10–3 s–1. How long will 6 g of this reactant take to reduce to 2 g?    [2]

    The half-life for radioactive decay of 14C is 6930 years. An archaeological artifact containing wood had only 75% of the 14C found in a living tree. Find the age of the sample.
    [log 4 = 0.6021, log 3 = 0.4771, log 2 = 0.3010, log 10 = 1]    [2]

On heating compound (A) gives a gas (B) which is constituent of air. The gas when treated with H2 in the presence of catalyst gives another gas (C) which is basic in nature, (A) should not be ______.


For a chemical reaction starting with some initial concentration of reactant At as a function of time (t) is given by the equation,

`1/("A"_"t"^4) = 2 + 1.5 xx 10^-3` t

The rate of disappearance of [A] is ____ × 10-2 M/sec when [A] = 2 M.

[Given: [At] in M and t in sec.]
[Express your answer in terms of 10-2 M /s]
[Round off your answer if required]


Assertion (A): Order of reaction is applicable to elementary as well as complex reactions.

Reason (R): For a complex reaction, molecularity has no meaning.
