why molecularity cannot be obtained from rate equation of simple reaction
Answers
Answer:
????????
Explanation:
Molecularity in chemistry is the number of molecules that come together to react in an elementary (single-step) reaction[1] and is equal to the sum of stoichiometric coefficients of reactants in this elementary reaction.[2] Depending on how many molecules come together, a reaction can be unimolecular, bimolecular or trimolecular.
The kinetic order of any elementary reaction or reaction step is equal to its molecularity, and the rate equation of an elementary reaction can therefore be determined by inspection, from the molecularity.[1]
The kinetic order of a complex (multistep) reaction, however, cannot be equated to molecularity since molecularity only describes elementary reactions or steps.
