If the volume of closed vessel in which the following simple reaction is carried out is reduced to one third of Original volume the rate of reaction becomes
2NO + O2 gives 2NO
Answers
Answer:
from the law of mass action consider given equation
2NO+O2=2NO2
So the volume of the simple reaction is equal to one third of the original volume.
rate=k*
If the volume is diminished to one third then concentration of both NO and O2 will becomes three times the rate of reaction increases 27 times.
For a given reaction,
Rate of reaction = k[NO]²[O2]
Rate of reaction is directly proportional to concentration of the compound or inversely proportional to the volume of the vessel.
C proportional to n/V
If volume of vessel is reduced by 1/3rd of its original value, then concentration of compound is increased by 3 times and consequently the rate of reaction by 27 times.
i.e, Rate= k[3NO]²[3O2] = k×9×3[NO]²[O2]
Rate = 27 times.
