Half Reaction Method

If the half-cell reaction A = E^(-) rarr A^- has a large negative reduction potential, it follows that .

Assertion (A): For the reaction RCl + NaOH(g) rarr ROH + NaCl , the rate of reaction is reduced to half on reducing the cocentration of RCl to half. Reason (R ): The rate of the reaction is represented by k[RCl] , i.e., it is a first order reaction.

The E_a for forward reaction is 50 kcal. The E_a for its backward reaction is:
