प्रश्न
Why can we not determine the order of a reaction by taking into consideration the balanced chemical equation?

उत्तर
Balanced chemical equation often leads to incorrect order or rate law. For example the following reaction seems to be a tenth order reaction.
\[\ce{KClO3 + 6FeSO4 + 3H2SO4 -> KCl + 3H2O + 3Fe2 (SO4)3}\]
This is actually a second order reaction. Actually the reaction is complex and occurs in several steps. The order of such reaction is determined by the slowest step in the reaction mechanism. Order is determined experimentally and is confined to the dependence of observed rate of reaction on the concentration of reactants.

Why does the rate of any reaction generally decreases during the course of the reaction?
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.
Assertion: The enthalpy of reaction remains constant in the presence of a catalyst.
Reason: A catalyst participating in the reaction, forms different activated complex and lowers down the activation energy but the difference in energy of reactant and product remains the same.
In the presence of a catalyst, the heat evolved or absorbed during the reaction.
