The acid catalysed ionisation of gamma-h...

The acid catalysed ionisation of `gamma`-hydroxy butyric acid proceeds as a reversible reaction. Which is I order in both the forward and backward steps:
`underset("(Acid)")(A) underset(K_(1)) overset(K_(2))(hArr) underset("(Lactose)")(B)`
The rate `-(d[A])/(d t)` is given by:

A

`K_(1)[A]`

B

`-K_(2)[B]`

C

`K_(1)[A]-K_(2)[B]`

D

`(K_(1)[A])/(K_(2)[B])`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Rate=`K_(1)[A]-K_(2)[B]`, This is reversible reaction.
