In a particular reaction the time required to complete half of the reaction was found to increase 16 times when the initial concentration of the reactant was reduced to one fourth what is the order of the reaction

A

1

B

4

C

2

D

3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
We know that `t_(1//2) prop (1)/(a^(n-1))`. So, `16 = ((1)/(4))^(1-n) rArr 4^(2) = 4^(n-1) rArr n = 3`
