उत्तर
(i) For the hydrolysis of methyl acetate to be a pseudo first-order reaction, the reaction should be first order with respect to ester when [H2O] is constant. The rate constant k for a first order reaction is given by
`k=2.303/t`
where[R]o = Initial concentration of reactant
[R] = Final concentration of reactant
At t1 = 30 s,
`k_1=2.303/30`
At t2 = 60 s,
`k_2=2.303/60`
It can be seen that the rate constant k for the reaction has a constant value under any given time interval. Hence, the given reaction follows the pseudo first-order kinetics.
(ii) Average rate of reaction between the time interval of 30–60 seconds is given by
`Rate=-(Delta[R])/(Deltat)`
`=-((0.15-0.30)/(60-30))`
`=0.15/30=0.005`
