Question

Express the rate of reaction in terms of change in concentration of each constituent for a reaction A + B - 4C​

Answer 1

Rate=$\dfrac{-d[A]}{dt}=\dfrac{-d[B]}{dt}={\dfrac{1}{4}}\dfrac{d[C]}{dt}$.

• The rate of a reaction can be given in terms of the concentration of reactant and product.
• Here the reaction is $A+B\rightarrow 4C$.
• The rate of the reaction in terms of reactants A and B can be given as-
• Rate=$\dfrac{-d[A]}{dt}=\dfrac{-d[B]}{dt}$.
• The rate of the reaction in terms of the product can be given as-
• Rate=${\dfrac{1}{4}}\dfrac{d[C]}{dt}$.
