Interpretation:
The rate law equations needs to be applied to show the difference between a first order reaction with a single reactant and second order reaction with a single reactant.
Concept introduction:
The relationship between rate of a
Answer to Problem 24SSC
For a first order reaction, if the concentration of reactant increases two times rate will also increases to two times and for a second order reaction if concentration increases two times rate will increase four times.
Explanation of Solution
Consider the decomposition of
From the rate equation, it is known that the decomposition of
For a second order reaction,
If the concentration of
Rate depends upon the order of the reaction.
