Why can’t molecularity of any reaction be equal to zero?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The number of molecules of the reactants involved in an elementary reaction is referred to as the molecularity of the reaction. For this, a single molecule with a minimum molecularity of one is required, and it cannot be zero.
