A reaction is second order with respect ...

A reaction is second order with respect to a reactant. How is the rate of reaction affected if the concentration of the reactant is
(i) doubled (ii) reduced to half?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Rate `=k[A]^(2)=ka^(2)`. [Let [A] be represented by a]
If `[A]=2a, " rate"=k((a)/(2))^(2)=(1)/(4)ka^(2)`. The rate becomes one-fourth.
