Assertion : The rate of reaction whether exothermic or endothermic, increases with temperature. Reason : The rate of reaction = K [reactant] and K increases with temperature.

Assertion : Order of a reaction with respect to any reactant can be zero, positive, negative or fractional. Reason: Rate of a reaction cannot decrease with increase in concentration of a reactant or a product.

Assertion :In any reaction, the rate of disappearance of a reactant is same as the rate of reaction. Reason: Both rate of reaction and rate of disappearance of a reactant represent decrease in the concentration of the reactant per unit time.
