Welcome to the NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Chemistry - Chapter Chemical Kinetics. This page offers a step-by-step solution to the specific question from Exercise 2, Question 2: . With detailed answers and explanations for each chapter, students can strengthen their understanding and prepare confidently for exams. Ideal for CBSE and other board students, this resource will simplify your study experience.
For the reaction:
2A + B → A2B
the rate = k[A][B]2with k= 2.0 x 10-6mol-2L2s-1. Calculate the initial rate of the reaction when [A] = 0.1 mol L-1, [B] = 0.2 mol L-1. Calculate the rate of reaction after [A] is reduced to 0.06 mol L-1.
The initial rate of the reaction is
Rate = k [A][B]2
= (2.0 × 10 - 6mol - 2L2s - 1) (0.1 mol L - 1) (0.2 mol L - 1)2
= 8.0 × 10 - 9mol - 2L2s - 1
When [A] is reduced from 0.1 mol L - 1to 0.06 mol - 1, the concentration of A reacted = (0.1 - 0.06) mol L - 1 = 0.04 mol L - 1
Therefore, concentration of B reacted= 1/2 x 0.04 mol L-1 = 0.02 mol L - 1
Then, concentration of B available, [B] = (0.2 - 0.02) mol L - 1
= 0.18 mol L - 1
After [A] is reduced to 0.06 mol L - 1, the rate of the reaction is given by,
Rate = k [A][B]2
= (2.0 × 10 - 6mol - 2L2s - 1) (0.06 mol L - 1) (0.18 mol L - 1)2
= 3.89 mol L - 1s - 1
The reaction between A and B is first order with respect to A and zero order with respect to B. Fill in the blanks in the following table:
| Experiment |
A/ mol L - 1 |
B/ mol L - 1 |
Initial rate/mol L - 1 min - 1 |
| I | 0.1 | 0.1 |
2.0 × 10 - 2 |
| II | -- | 0.2 |
4.0 × 10 - 2 |
| III | 0.4 | 0.4 | -- |
| IV | -- | 0.2 |
2.0 × 10 - 2 |

oohhhooo AHhhaa
How come we halved the concentration of A to find the new one of B
Ohho
Second part of this answer\'s method is correct but answer is wrong...it will be = 3.888*10^-9 mol-2L2s-1
