    The bromination of acetone that occurs in acid solution is represented by this equation. [AIPMT (S) 2008]
    \[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}(aq)+B{{r}_{2}}(aq)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\]\[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{2}}Br(aq)+{{H}^{+}}(aq)+B{{r}^{-}}(aq)\]
    These kinetic data were obtained for given reaction concentrations.
    Initial concentrations, M
    \[[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}]\]            \[[B{{r}_{2}}]\]             \[[{{H}^{+}}]\]
    0.30                  0.05                  0.05
    0.30                  0.10                  0.05
    0.30                  0.10                  0.10
    0.40                  0.05                  0.20
    Initial rate, disappearance of \[B{{r}_{2}},M{{s}^{-1}}\]
    \[5.7\times {{10}^{-5}}\]
    \[5.7\times {{10}^{-5}}\]
    \[1.2\times {{10}^{-4}}\]
    \[3.1\times {{10}^{-4}}\]
    Based on these data, the rate equation is

    A) Rate \[=k[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}][{{H}^{+}}]\]

    B) Rate \[=k[CH=COC{{H}_{3}}][B{{r}_{2}}]\]

    C) Rate \[=k[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}][B{{r}_{2}}]{{[{{H}^{+}}]}^{2}}\]

    D) Rate \[=k[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}][B{{r}_{2}}]{{[{{H}^{+}}]}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Key Idea: By comparing the rate and concentration, the order of the reaction can be calculated.
    Let the rate of the reaction wrt \[[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}],\]\[[B{{r}_{2}}]\] and \[[{{H}^{+}}]\] are x, y and z respectively. Thus,
    Rate \[\propto {{[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}]}^{x}}{{[B{{r}_{2}}]}^{y}}{{[{{H}^{+}}]}^{z}}\]
    \[5.7\times {{10}^{-5}}={{[0.30]}^{x}}{{[0.05]}^{y}}{{[0.05]}^{z}}\]         …(i)
    \[5.7\times {{10}^{-5}}={{[0.30]}^{x}}{{(0.10)}^{y}}{{(0.05)}^{z}}\]         …(ii)
    \[1.2\times {{10}^{-4}}={{[0.30]}^{x}}{{(0.10)}^{y}}{{(0.10)}^{z}}\]         …(iii)
    \[3.1\times {{10}^{-4}}={{[0.40]}^{x}}{{(0.05)}^{y}}{{(0.20)}^{z}}\]         …(iv)
    From Eqs (i) and (ii)
    y = 0
    From Eqs (ii) and (iii)
    x = 1       
    From, Eqs (i) and (iv)
    x = 1
    Thus, rate law \[\propto [C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}][{{H}^{+}}]\]
    \[=k[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}][{{H}^{+}}]\]
