Consider the following statement :
1 The rate of reaction is always proportinal to the concentration of reactants.
2 The order of an elementary chemical reaction step can be determined by examing its stoichimoetry.
3 The first order reactions follows an exponential time course.
Of these statements :

A

1, 2 and 3 are correct

B

1 and 2 are correct

C

2 and 3 are correct

D

1 and 3 are correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Rate of a reaction may depend upon the product concentrations. Statement (1) cannot be correct because the rate of zero order reactions does not depend on concentration of reactant.

Consider the following statements about first order reaction: (1) The rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactant. (2) Its half-life period is always constant. (3) Concentration of reactant falls exponentially. (4) It has low activation energy. Of these statements:

In a reaction A to B the rate of reaction increases two times on increasing the concentration of the reactant four times, then order of reaction is

In a reaction A to B, the rate of reaction increases eight times on increasing the concentration of the reactant four times, then order of reaction is:

A : Rate of reaction depends upon the concentration of the reactants. R : The order of reaction can be negative with respect to substance present in the reaction.

If the concentration of the reactants is increased, the rate of reaction for first order-
