Answer»

Solution :Gvien reaction :`3NO_((g))toN_(2)O_((g))`
Rate of reaction =`k[NO]^(2)` is GIVEN
`THEREFORE` Order of reaction =Power=2
DIMENSION of rate constant:
Rate of reaction =`k[NO]^(2)`
`therefore k=("Rate")/([NO]^(2))` `=L mol^(-1)s^(-1)`
The unit of second order reaction is `mol^(-1) Ls^(-1)`
The unit of rate is always mol `L^(-1) s^(-1)`
(ii)Given reaction :`H_(2)O_(2(aq))+3I_((aq))^(-)to2H_(2)O_((l))+I_(3)^(-)`
Rate of reaction =`k[H_(2)O_(2)][I]`
so with respect to `H_(2)O_(2)` order is =1
With respect to `I^(-)` order is =1
`therefore` overal order of reaction =I+I=2
Dimension of k:
Rate of reaction =`k[H_(2)O_(2)][I^(-)]`
`therefore` Dimension of k=`("Dimension of rate")/([H_(2)O_(2)][I^(-)])`
`=(mol L^(-1) s^(-1))/((mol L^(-1)) (mol s^(-1)))`
(iii)Gicen reaction :`CH_(3)CHO_((g))toCH_((g))+CO_((g))`
Rate of this reaction k=`[CH_(3)CHO]^((3)/(2))`
Order of this reaction =Power of reactant in the equation =`(3)/(2)`
Dimension of k:
`therefore` Dimension of k(unit) `(mol L^(-1))^(-(1)/(2)) s^(-1)` (iv) Given reaction :`C_(2)H_(5)Cl_((g))toC_(2)H_(4(g))+HCl_((g))`
Rate of reaction (r)=`k[C_(2)H_(5)Cl]`
Rate of reaction (n)=(Sum of power in rate equation)=1
Dimension of rate constant k:
Dimension of k=`("Dimension Rate (r)")/("dimension of reactant in rate equation ")`
`(mol L^(-1)S^(-1))/(mol L^(-1))`
`=s^(-1)`
