Rate Law
For a reaction A + 2B → C, the rate law is r = k[A][B]². The order of reaction is:
Select the correct option:
Solution
3
The Overall Order of a chemical reaction is the sum of the powers of the concentrations of the reactants in the experimentally determined rate law.
- Rate Law: r=k[A]1[B]2
- Order with respect to A =1
- Order with respect to B =2
- Overall Order =1+2=3 Note: The stoichiometric coefficients (1 and 2 in the reaction) match the order here, which suggests it might be an elementary reaction, but order must be determined experimentally.
