For a reaction `A+ B to ` Products, the rate law is -Rate `= k[A][B]^(3//2)`
Can the reaction be an elementray reaction ? Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
N/a

During an elementary , the number or atoms or ions colliding to reacts is referred to as molecularity. Had this been an elementry reaction, the order of reaction with respects to B would have been 1, but in the given rate law is `(3)/(2)`. This indicates that the reaction is not an elementary reaction, Hence , this reaction must be a complex reaction .
