The rate of formation of a dimer in a second order reaction is 7.5xx10^(-3)"mol L"^(-1)s^(-1) at 0.05"mol L"^(-1) monomer concentration. Calculate the rate constant.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Let US consider the dimerisation of a monomer M
`2Mrarr(M)_(2)`
`"Rate "=k[M]^(n)`
`"Given that n = 2 and [M]"="0.05 MOL L"^(-1)`
`"Rate "=7.5xx10^(-3)" mol L"^(-1)s^(-1)`
`k=("Rate")/([M]^(n))RARR k=(7.5xx10^(-3))/((0.05)^(2))="3 mol"^(-1)L s"^(-1)`
