Solution
For the given rate law, r = k [A]1/2 [B]2,
Order with respect to A = 1/2
Order with respect to B = 2
The order of the reaction = `1/2 + 2`
= `5/2`
= 2.5

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. |
