JEE Main 2014 — Chemical Kinetics Question with Solution

JEE Main 2014 (06 Apr)

Question

For the non-stoichiometry reaction,  2 A + B → C + D , the following kinetic data were obtained in three separate experiments, all at 298 K.
Initial Concentration (A) Initial Concentration (B) Initial rate of formation of C mol L - S -  
0.1 M 0.1 M 1.2 × 1 0 - 3
0.1 M 0.2 M 1.2 × 1 0 - 3
0.2 M 0.1 M 2.4 × 1 0 - 3

The rate law for the formation of C is

Correct answer
D dc dt = k A

Step-by-step explanation

Let x and y be the orders of the reaction with respect to the reactants A and B.

Rate1=1.2×10-3=0.1x0.1y .......IRate2=1.2×10-3=0.1x0.2y .......IIRate3=2.4×10-3=0.2x0.1y .......III


III=2y=1=20  ∴  y=0

III I ⇒ 2 1 = 2 x   ∴   x = 1

Rate = k · A 1
