If concentration of reactant ' \(\mathrm{A}^{\prime}\) is increased by 10 times the rate of reaction becomes 100 times. What is the order of reaction if rate law is, rate \(=\mathrm{k}[\mathrm{A}]^{\mathrm{x}}\) ?

  1. A 1
  2. B 4
  3. C 3
  4. D 2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A)
\(r=k[A]^{x}, \quad 100 r=k[10 A]^{x}\)
\(\therefore \frac{1}{100}=\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^{x}\)
\(\therefore x=2\)
The order of reaction \(=2\)
