The relative order of rate of esterification of acids is

A

0

B

first

C

second order

D

pseudo first order

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`underset"Carboxylic acid"R-oversetOoverset("||")C-OH+underset("Alcohol")HO-R overset(H+)toR-oversetOoverset"||"C-OR+H_(2)O`
Rate of reaction =k[carbosylic acid ][alcohol]
So, order of reaction=2
