In a second order reaction, first order in each reactant `A` and `B`, which one of the following reactant mixtures will provide the highest initial rate?

A

`0.1` mole of `A` of 0.1 mole of `B` in `0.1`litre solution.

B

`0.2` mole of `A` of 0.2 mole of `B` in `0.1` litre solution.

C

`0.1` mole of `A` and `0.1` mole of `B` in `1` litre solution.

D

`0.1` mole of `A` and `0.1` mole of `B` in `0.2`litre solution.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Rate=`K[A]^(1)[B]^(1)=K[([0.2])/0.1][([2.0])/0.1]` is maximum.
