Answer» SOLUTION : Rate = `k[A]^(x)[0.1]^y` `0.10=k[0.2]^(x)[0.1]^y` `0.05= K[0.1]6(x)[0.2]^(y)` Dividing equation (II) by (i) WEE get `(0.10)/(0.05)=2^(x)` or `2=2^(2x)` or x=1 Dividing equation (ii) by (i) , we get `(0.10)/(90.05) = 2^(x)` ir `2=2^(x)` or x=1 Dividing equation (iii) by (i) , we get `(0.05)/(0.05)= 2^(y)` or `1=2^(y)` or y=0 `THEREFORE` Rate =` K [A]^(1)[B]^(0)` , It is a forst order reaction . HALF - life period Substituting the values in equation (i) we get " 0.05=k[0.1]or `k=(0.05)/(0.1)=0.5s^(-1)` `t_(1//2)= (0.693)/(k) = (0.693)/(0.5)` or `t_(1//2)=1.386s` |
