Question

Mark as true or false, the reaction of H+ and OH- to form water is highly exothermic process

A) this neutralization reaction proceeds faster at a cooler temperature as dictated by le chatelier's principle

B) this neutralization reaction proceeds faster at a higher temperature as dictated by le chatelier's principle

C) as a first approximation, temperature has no effect on the rate of the reaction

D) le chatelier's principle has nothing to do with the rate of a reaction

E) as a general rule, most ionic reactions occur at a diffusion controlled rate, i.e limited by speed with which two ions approach each other

A) TRUE - this neutralization reaction proceeds faster at a cooler temperature as dictated by le chatelier's principle

Because exothermic reactions are favoured by low temperature as per Lechatleier's priciple

B) FALSE - this neutralization reaction proceeds faster at a higher temperature as dictated by le chatelier's principle

C) FALSE - as a first approximation, temperature has no effect on the rate of the reaction

D) TRUE - le chatelier's principle has nothing to do with the rate of a reaction

It just explains about the shift of equilibirum position by change the variable factors but not about the rate.

E) TRUE - as a general rule, most ionic reactions occur at a diffusion controlled rate, i.e limited by speed with which two ions approach each other
