Read the Passage carefully and answer the Questions
Kinetic studies not only help us to determine the rate of a chemical reaction but also describe the conditions by which the reaction rates can be altered. The factors such as concentration, temperature, pressure and catalyst affect the rate of a reaction. The speed of a reaction or the rate of a reaction can be defined as the change in concentration of a reactant or product in unit time.
Rate \(= \text{k}[\text{A}]^x [\text{B}]^y\)
Here k is the rate constant
\(x + y\) gives the overall order of a reaction, whereas \(x\) and \(y\) represent the order with respect to the reactants A and B, respectively.
If the temperature is raised by \(10^\circ\text{C}\), then the rate of the reaction increases approximately by:

  1. A Two times
  2. B Three times
  3. C Five times
  4. D Ten times
Verified Solution
