Question

what is the order of reaction. give one example of a second order reaction. can order of reaction be fractional? explain

Answer 1

Explanation:

The order of a chemical reaction is defined as the sum of the powers of the concentration of the reactants in the rate equation of that particular chemical reaction.

Examples of Second-Order Chemical Reactions

This is because some reactions are intermediate reactions of other reactions. Hydrogen ions and hydroxy ions form water. Nitrogen dioxide decomposes into nitrogen monoxide and an oxygen molecule. Hydrogen Iodide decomposes into iodine gas and hydrogen gas.

Answer 2

ORDER OF REACTION :---

-> The sum of powers of the concentration of the reactants in rate law expression is called Order of Reaction .

Ex;

aA + bB -----> cC + dD

Rate = k $[A]^{x}[ B]^{y}$

then order of reaction = x+y

hope this will help u ;)
