Question
Assertion: Rate constants determined from Arrhenius equation are fairly accurate for simple as well as complex molecules.
Reason: Reactant molecules undergo chemical change irrespective of their orientation during collision.
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.

Solution
Assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.
Explanation:
To Arrhenius equation `(k =Ae^((-Ea)/(RT)))`; it is found almost accurate for single as well as complex reaction.
However, orientation is essential for the reactant molecules participating in the reaction.

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. |
