A) second order
B) unimolecular
C) pseudo-unimolecular
D) third order
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
\[RCOO{{R}^{1}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{HCl}RCOOH+{{R}^{1}}-OH\] This reaction is pseudo-unimolecular reaction. It is not first order reaction. In this reaction the concentration of one of the reactant (water) is much larger than the other. Hence rate does not depend upon concentration of water \[r\propto [RCOO{{R}^{1}}]\]
