Assertion : Molecularity of a reaction cannot be determined experimentally.

Reason : Molecularity is assigned to the reactions on the basis of mechanism.

Explanation

(A). Molecularity of a reaction cannot be determined experimentally because molecularity is assigned to the reactions on the basis of mechanism.

Assertion : For a first order reaction, the degree of dissocation is equal to 1-e-kt

Reason  : For a first order reaction, the pre-exponential factor in the Arrhenius equation has the dimension of time-1

Explanation

(B). For a first order reaction,

[A]f [A]0 exp(- kt)

[A]0- [A]f= [A]0- [A]0 exp( -kt) [A]0 (1- exp( -kt)or [A]0- [A]f[A]0 (1- exp( -kt)

So, degree of dissocation = (1 – exp (–kt)

For a first order reaction,

k=A exp-Ea/RT=A expJ mol-1J mol-1K-1K

Thus, the units of A are the same as that for k. For a first order reaction, the units of k are those of time-1. So the units of A are also those of time-1

KClO3 on heating decomposes into KCl and O2. If some MnO2 is added the reaction goes much faster because:

A.  K1no catalyst=Ae-Ea/RT         K2catalyst=Ae-Ea-0.8/RT         K2K1=e0.8/RT=e0.8/0.002×400=2.72

Assertion : Physical and chemical adsoptions respond differently to a rise in temperature.

Reason : Chemical adsorption requires some activation energy.

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

(A). Physical and chemical adsoptions respond differently to a rise in temperature because

       chemical adsorption requires some activation energy. So, at low temperatures, it is very small

       but increases with a rise in temperature. At higher temperatures, it starts decreasing because

       the adsorbate molecules gain more kinetic energy and are able to leave the surface of the

       adsorbent. While in physical adsorption decreases with a rise in temperature.

Assertion : Catalyst in general, in the form of finely divided powder.

Reason : Finer is the particle of a solid, greater is its surface area.

Explanation

(A). Catalyst in general, in the form of finely divided powder because finer is the particle of a solid,

       greater is its surface area. Larger surface leads to the greater adsorption of the reacting

       molecules on the surface. As a result, the reaction rate increases.

The reaction of hydrogen and iodine monochloride is given as :

H2(g)+ 2ICl(g)  2HCl(g)+ I2(g)

This reaction is of first order with respect to H2(g) and 2ICl(g) following mechanisms were proposed:

Mechanism A:

H2(g)+ 2ICl(g)  2HCl(g)+ I2(g)

Mechanism B :

H2(g)+ ICl(g) HCl(g)+ HI(g) ; slow

HI(g)+ ICl(g)  HClCg) + I2(g); fast

Which of the above mechanism (s) can be consistent with the given information about the reaction ?

Explanation

Rate of reaction is always depends on slow reaction.

H2(g)+ 2ICl(g)  2HCl(g)+ I2(g) is first order reaction respect to H2 and I2 can be measured with the help of both mechanism A and B.
