    Q. 1. What is order of a reaction? Derive an expression for a first order reaction. What is
    half life period?

    Ans. Order of a reaction: Number of those reactant molecular species whose conc.
    actually changes as a result of reaction. Or, it is the sum of the powers to which reactant
    terms must be raised to express the rate of reaction completely.
    aA + bB → product
    Let x moles of A and y moles of B are involved, where conc. changes in rate determining
    or slowest step.
    order of reaction = (x + y) , r CAx.CBy

    First order reactions : Expression for a first order reaction :


    A → Product
    Concentration of reactant at t = 0 is "a"
    say dx is gain in conc. of product in time dt
    conc. of reactant at "t" is a - x
    Therefore, dx/dt (a - x) or dx/dt = k(a - x) or dx/(a - x) = kdt
    integrating this reaction ƒ(dx/(a - x))= kƒ(dt)
    -log (a - x) = kt + C ....................(i) If t = 0, x = 0
    So, - log a = C ................(ii)
    putting value of (ii) in (i)
    - log(a - x) = kt - log a or log a - log (a - x) = kt
    or loge a/(a - x) = kt or 2.303 log10 a/(a - x) = kt
    k = [2.303/t . log10 a/(a - x)] .........(iii)
    Half life period T1/2 (Time required to bring half change)
    At T1/2 = t, x = 0.5a. putting value in equation (iii)
    k = 2.303/t1/2. log 10 a/(a - 0.5a) = 2.303/T1/2 log102
    = (2.303 x .3010)/T1/2
    [k = 0.693/T1/2]

    Q. 2. The reaction A + 3B 2c obeys the rate equation Rate = k [A]1/2 [B]3/2 What is the
    order of this reaction?

    Ans Order = (1/2) + (3/2) = 2

    Q. 3. A reaction is 50% complete in 2 hrs and 75% complete in 4 hrs. What is the order
    of reaction?
    Ans.

    Q. 4. How does change in temperature effects rate constant? Write the relationship,
    which explains the temperature dependence of a reaction.

    Ans. For a chemical reaction, every 10° rise in temperature, nearly doubles the rate
    constant. Arrhenius established the relationship between rate constant and temperature
    of reaction.

    Where, A = Arrhenius factor / frequency factor


    E2 = Activation energy in J mol-1

    Q. 5. The slope of a line in the graph of log 10 K verses (1/T) for a reaction is –5642k.
    Calculate the activation energy for this reaction.

    Ans.

    Q. 6. Write differences between molecular and order of reaction.

    Ans.

    Molecularity Order

    1. It is the total number of It is the total number of molecu


    molecules as present in
    balanced chemical reaction
    leading to formation of
    products.

    2. Molecularity of reaction can Order of reaction can be in


    never be in fractions. fractions.

    3. Molecularity of reaction Order of reaction can be zero.


    cannot be zero.
    Q. 7. The rate of a chemical reaction gets doubled after an increase of 10 K in absolute
    temperature from 298K. Calculate Ea.

    Ans.
