Question

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.

Options

  • Both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is correct explanation of assertion.

  • Both assertion and reason are correct but reason does not explain assertion.

  • Assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.

  • Both assertion and reason are incorrect.

  • Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.

Solution

Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.

Explanation:

Order and molecularity may not be necessarily same. Order is determined experimentally but molecularity is calculated using balanced stoichiometric equation.
