Question

Give one example of pseudo 1st order reaction

Answer 1

Hydrolysis of ester....

Answer 2

Hey !!

Example :- The inversion of cane sugar is a bimolecular reaction but it is a first order reaction as concentration of H₂O is quite large and does not change appreciably.

   

                     C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + H₂O --H⁺--> C₆H₁₂O₆ + C₆H₁₂O₆

                     Rate = k [C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁]

Hope it helps you !
