The rate for the reaction X to Y is studied at 25^(@)C by varying conditions of reaction.In experiment (i) the rate of reaction is found out to be 5xx10^(-2) mole L^(-1)s^(-1). In experiment (ii) the rate of reaction is found out be 8xx10^(-1) " mole " L^(-1)s^(-1). Account for the veriation in rate of reaction.

Answer»

Solution :RATE of reaction depends upon concentration, catalyst, etc., at a GIVEN temperature.
The more the initial concentration of reactant, the more is the rate of reaction. Since in experiment (ii), the rate is higher the initial concentration of X could be more.
Rate of catalysed reaction is greater than that of UNCATALYSED REACTIN. Since in experiment (ii) , the rate of reaction is higher a POSITIVE catalyst might have been used.
