Question : 14 of 27
 
Marks: +1, -0
The following data were obtained for the reaction:
A+2B→C
 Experiment  [A]∕M  [B]∕M   Initial rate of formation of C∕M min−1
 1  0.2  0.3  4.2×10−2
 2  0.1  0.1  6.0×10−3
 3  0.4  0.3  1.68×10−1
 4  0.1  0.4  2.40×10−2

(a) Find the order of reaction with respect to A and B.
(b) Write the rate law and overall order of reaction.
(c) Calculate the rate constant (k).
Solution:
Let the order of reaction with respect to A be x and with respect to B be y.
∴ Rate of reaction =k[A]x[B]y
According to details given ,
4.2×10−2=k[0.2]x[0.3]y .....(1)
6.0×10−3=k[0.1]x[0.1]y .......(2)
1.68×10−1=k[0.4]x[0.3]y .......(3)
2.40×10−2=k[0.1]x[0.4]y ........(4)
Dividing equation (4) by (2), we get
2.40×10−26.0×10−3=k[0.1]x[0.4]yk[0.1]x[0.1]y
4=[0.4]y[0.1]y
(4)1=(4)y
y=1
Dividing equation (1) by (3), we get
4.2×10−21.68×10−1=k[0.2]x[0.3]yk[0.4]x[0.3]y
0.25=[0.1]x[0.2]x
(0.25)=(0.5)x
(0.5)2=(0.5)xx=2
(a) So the rate of reaction with respect to A is 2 and with respect to B is 1 .
(b) Rate law =k[A]2[B] Overall order of reaction is 3 .
(c) Rate constant, K= Rate [A]2[B]
=6.0×10−3(0.1)2(0.1)
=6.0mol−2L2min−1
