Question
For the reaction, \[\ce{A +2B → AB2}\], the order w.r.t. reactant A is 2 and w.r.t. reactant B. What will be change in rate of reaction if the concentration of A is doubled and B is halved?
Options
Increases four times
Decreases four times
Increases two times
No change

Solution
Increases four times
Explanation:
Rate = [A]2
If [A] is doubled then Rate = [2A]2 = 4[A]2 = 4 Rate

Assertion: Order of the reaction can be zero or fractional.
Reason: We cannot determine order from balanced chemical equation.
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.
