Question

In a reaction if the concentration of reactant A is tripled, the rate of reaction becomes twenty seven times. What is the order of the reaction?

Short/Brief Note
Advertisements

Solution

Rate = `k[A]^alpha`   .....(i)

27 × Rate = `k[3A]^alpha` .....(ii)

Dividing equation (ii) by equation (i), we get α = 3

∴ Order of reaction = 3
