A hypothetical reaction: |
\[{{A}_{2}}+{{B}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}\,2AB\]Follows mechanism as given below: |
\[{{A}_{2}}A+A.........(\text{fast})\] |
\[A+{{B}_{2}}AB+B.........(slow)\] |
\[A+BAB.........(\text{fast})\] |
The order of overall reaction is: |
A) 2.5
B) 1
C) 3 / 2
D) Zero
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Rate is governed by slowest step | ||
\[A+{{B}_{2}}AB+B\] | ||
\[r={{k}_{1}}\,[A]\,\,[{{B}_{2}}]\] | ?(i) | |
Form \[{{A}_{2}}A+A\] | ||
\[{{k}_{C}}=\frac{{{[A]}^{2}}}{[{{A}_{2}}]}\] | ?(ii) | |
\[[A]=\sqrt{{{k}_{c}}}{{[{{A}_{2}}]}^{1/2}}\] | ||
