Assertion : Order of a reaction with respect to any reactant can be zero, positive negative of fractional.
Reason : Rate of a reaction cannot decrease with increase in concentration of a reactant or a product.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Assertion (A) : An order with respect to any reactant or Product can be zero, poistive, negative, and fractional. Reason (R ): Rate cannot decrease with increase in the concentration of a reactant or Product.

For a first order reaction, the concentration of reactant :

Assertion. In any reaction, the rate of disappearance of a reactant is same as the rate of reaction. Reason. Both rate of reaction and rate of disappearance of a reactant represent decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time.

Statement-1: Temperature coefficient of a one step reaction may be negative. Statement-2: The rate of reaction having negative order with respect to a reactant decreases with the increase in concentration of the reactant.

Assertion : The rate of reaction is the rate of change of concentration of a reactant or a product. Reason : Rate of reaction remians constant during the complete reaction.

Assertion : Rate of reaction doubles when concentration of reactant is doubled if it is a first order reaction. Reason : Rate constant also double.
