Write molecularity of the following reaction:

2NO(g)+O2(g)→2NO2(g)


For a reaction A + B ⟶ P, the rate is given by

Rate = k [A] [B]2

What is the overall order of reaction if A is present in large excess?


From the rate expression for the following reaction, determine the order of reaction and the dimension of the rate constant.

\[\ce{CH3CHO_{(g)} -> CH4_{(g)} + CO_{(g)}}\] Rate = k [CH3CHO]3/2


For the reaction:

\[\ce{2A + B → A2B}\] 

the rate = k[A][B]2 with k = 2.0 × 10−6 mol−2 L2 s−1. Calculate the initial rate of the reaction when [A] = 0.1 mol L−1, [B] = 0.2 mol L−1. Calculate the rate of reaction after [A] is reduced to 0.06 mol L−1.


The decomposition of N2O5(g) at 320K according to the following equation follows first order reaction:

`N_2O_(5(g))->2NO_(2(g))+1/2O_(2(g))`

The initial concentration of N2O5(g) is 1.24 x 10-2 mol. L-1 and after 60 minutes 0.20x10-2 molL-1. Calculate the rate constant of the reaction at 320K.


For which type of reactions, order and molecularity have the same value?


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.


The rate constant for the reaction \[\ce{2H2O5 -> 4NO2 + O2}\] is 30 × 10–5 sec–1. if the rate is 204 × 10–5 mol L1 S1, then the concentration of N2O5 (in mol1) is-


Assertion (A): Order of reaction is applicable to elementary as well as complex reactions.

Reason (R): For a complex reaction, molecularity has no meaning.
