Which of the following is NOT an indication of a chemical reaction?
PolarNik [594]
A. The substance dissolved. Just because a substance dissolved in a solvent doesn’t mean that a chemical action occurred. For example, if you put sugar in water as stir, it will dissolve, but the chemical make up of the sugar and the water don’t change. A chemical reaction can be indicated by a drastic change in color or temperature or if a substance precipitate.

Hope this helped :)

Answer: A. The reaction takes place in one step.

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

aA=bB\rightarrow cC+dD

Rate=k[A]^a[B]^b

k= rate constant

a= order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B
