Question

1.As a chemical reaction proceeds, the rate of the reaction tends to:
a. increase. b. decrease. c. remain constant. d. oscillate.

2.If tripling the concentration of reactant A multiplies the initial rate of the reaction by nine, the reaction is _______ order in A.
a. zeroth b. first c. second d. third

3 A + B - C + D Rate = k[A][B] The overall order of this reaction is:
a. first.    b. second.     c. third.   d. fourth.

4.   W + X --Y + Z   Rate = k[W] The order of this reaction with   respect to X is:
a. zeroth. b. first. c. second.   d. third.

Explanation / Answer

1)b

as the reaction proceeds the concentration of reactants decreases so rate of reaction decreases

2)c

R=K[A]^N

9R=K[3A]^N

=> 9=3^N

=>N=2

3)b

GIVEN

R=K[A][B]

ORDER= sum of the powers A,B = 1+1 =2

4)a

since rate only depends on concentration of W so rate w.r.t X is zero.
