Molecularity of any reaction is not equal to zero. Why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) Molecularity of the reaction is the number of molecules taking part in an elementary step.
(b) For this we require at least a single molecule leading to the value of minimum molecularity of one.
(c ) Hence, molecularity of any reaction can never be equal to zero.
