Question

(a) Define order of reaction.
(b) Rates of reaction double with every 10 rise in temperature. If this
generalization holds for a reaction in the temperature ranges 298 K to
308 K, what would be the value of activation energy for their reaction ?
R = 8.314 J K-1 mol-1.

Answer 1

(a) Order of Reaction : It is the sum of powers to which the conc. terms are
raised in rate law expression.
