Assertion :For the elementary reaction, aA(g)+bB(g)⟶ Product. The order of the reaction is equal to (a+b). Reason: Rate of reaction =k[A]a[B]b.
Assertion (A) Order and molecularity are same.
Reason (R) Order is determined experimentally and molecularity is the sum of the stoichimetric coeffcient of rate determining elementary step.
(a) Both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is correct explanation of assertion (b) Both assertion and reason are correct, but reason does not explain assertion. (c) Assertion is correct, but reason is incorrect (d) Both assertion and reason are incorrect (e) Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.
Assertion (A) Order of the reaction can be zero or fractional.
Reason (R) We cannot determine order from balanced chemical equation.
Assertion (A) The enthalpy of reaction remains constant in the presence of a catalyst.
Reason (R) A catalyst participating in the reaction forms different activated complex and lowers down the activation energy but the difference in enrgy of reactant and product remains the same.
Assertion (A) Ethanol is a weaker acid than phenol. Reason (R) Sodium ethoxide may be prepared by the reaction of ethanol with aqueous NaOH. (a) Assertion and reason both are correct and reason is correct explanation of assertion. (b) Assertion and reason both are wrong statements. (c) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement. (d) Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement. (e) Both assertion and reason are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation of assertion.
