The rate law for the reaction, cA + dB t...

The rate law for the reaction, `cA + dB to mP + nQ` is rate `= k [A]^( c) [B]^(d)`. What is the total order of the reaction?

A

`(x+y)`

B

`(m+n)`

C

`(c+d)`

D

`(x)/(y)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Order is the sum of the powers to which the concentration terms are raised in the rate equation. Hence, order is (c+d).
