The rate of a chemical reaction doubled for every \(10^{\circ} C\) rise in temperature. If the temperature is raised by \(50^{\circ} C\), the rate of reactions will be

  1. A 50 times higher
  2. B 32 times higher
  3. C 40 times higher
  4. D 20 times higher
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 32 times higher

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text{Number of } 10^{\circ} C \text{ intervals} = \frac{50^{\circ} C}{10^{\circ} C} = 5 \) \( \text{Rate increase} = 2^5 = 32 \)
