Assertion :According to steady state hypothesis,in a multistep reaction, the change in concentration with time for reactive intermediates is zero.
Reason: The intermediates are so reactive that after a brief initial period their concentrations rise from zero to a small value and remains constant for most of the duration of reaction.

Assertion :The rate of the reaction, A rarr B is the rate of change of concentration of a reactant or a product. Reason: Rate of reaction remains constant duringthe course of reaction.

Assertion : Rate constant of a zero order reaction has same units as the rate of reaction. Reason: Rate constant of a zero order reaction does not depend upon the units of concentration.

Assertion If in a zero order reaction, the concentration of the reactant is doubled. The half-life period is also doubled. Reason: For a zero order reaction, the rate of reaction is independent of initial concentration.

A substance (initial concentration a) reacts according to zero-order kinetics. The time it takes for the completion of the reaction is

Assertion : In a zero order reaction, if concentration of the reactant is doubled, half-life period is also doubled. Reason: The total time taken for a zero order reaction to complete is double of the half-life period.

For first order reaction half-life period Is Independent of initial concentration and Inversely proportional to the rate constant.Give relation for the above In the case of zero order reaction.

Assertion: The decomposition of gaseous ammonia on a hot platinum surface is a zero order reaction at high pressure. Reason: For a zero order reaction, the rate of reaction is independent of initial concentration.

Assertion : Concentration of reactant in zero order reaction is constant. Reason : For zero order reaction A to B , successive half life of reaction decreases with the progress of the reaction.
