Question

What is molecularity?
Topic. Chemical kinetics

Answer 1

Explanation:

Explanation:Molecularity in chemistry is the number of molecules that come together to react in an elementary reaction and is equal to the sum of stoichiometric coefficients of reactants in this elementary reaction. Depending on how many molecules come together, a reaction can be unimolecular, bimolecular or trimolecular.

Answer 2

Answer:

In chemical reactions,

Molecularity is defined as the no of molecules of the reactants coming together and participating in the reaction.

Mathematically, molecularity of a reaction is calculated by the sum of the stoichiometric coefficients of the reactants.

Depending on molecularity, a chemical reaction can be unimolecular,bimolecular or trimolecular.

Reactions having molecularity 4 or more are considered as complex reactions.
