Solution
Rate law for the reaction \[\ce{A + 2B -> C}\] is found to be Rate = k [A][B]. Concentration of reactant ‘B’ is doubled, keeping the concentration of ‘A’ constant, the value of rate constant will be the same.
Explanation:
The rate of concentration of a reaction does not depend upon the concentrations of the reactants. Hence, it will remain the same. Even if the equation shows the double concentration level, even the rate concentration doubles so it's the same throughout.
Following with the equation \[\ce{A + 2B -> C}\]
If rate considered as (1) Rate1 = k[A][B]
If rate considered as 2
Then, Rate1 = k[A][2B]
Rate2 = 2Rate1

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. |
