Question

For each of the following cases, identify the order with respect to the reactant, A. Case (A ----> product)

Answer 1

Answer:

The answers to the question are

1. 2nd and above order order

2. 2nd order

3. 1/2 order

4.  1st order

5. 0 order

Explanation:

We have $\frac{N}{N_{0} } = e^{-\lambda t}$

1. For nth order reaction half life  $t_{\frac{1}{2} }$ ∝ $\frac{1}{[A_{0} ]^{n-1} }$

Therefore for a 0 order reaction increasing concentration of the reactant there will increase   $t_{\frac{1}{2} }$

First order reaction    is independent  [A₀].

Second order reaction  [A₀] decrease,    increase.

Similarly for a  third order reaction

1. 2nd order

2. 2nd order reaction

3. Order of reaction is 1/2.

4. 1st order reaction.

5. Zero order reaction.
