The rate law for a reaction between reactants \(A, B\) and \(C\) is \(r=K[A][B][C]^2\), if concentration of \(A\) is halved, then rate of reaction

  1. A increase \(\frac{1}{2}\) times
  2. B remains the same
  3. C decreases \(\frac{1}{2}\) times
  4. D increase 2 times
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) decreases \(\frac{1}{2}\) times

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{K}[\mathrm{A}][\mathrm{B}][\mathrm{C}]^2\) of canc. of \(\mathrm{A}\) is halved
\(\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{K} \frac{[\mathrm{A}]}{2}[\mathrm{~B}][\mathrm{C}]^2\)
