Question
From the rate expression for the following reaction, determine the order of reaction and the dimension of the rate constant.
\[\ce{3NO_{(g)} -> N2O_{(g)}}\] Rate = k[NO]2
Advertisements
Solution
Given rate = k[NO]2
∴ The order of the reaction = 2
Dimension of k = \[\ce{\frac{Rate}{[NO]^2}}\]
= \[\ce{\frac{(mol L^{-1} s^{-1})}{(mol L^{-1})^2}}\]
= \[\ce{\frac{(mol L^{-1} s^{-1})}{(mol^2 L^{-2})}}\]
= L mol−1 s−1

Why can we not determine the order of a reaction by taking into consideration the 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.
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.
