Why can molecularity of any reaction not be equal to zero?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

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