Question

If in the fermentation of sugar in an enzymatic solution which is intially 0.12M the concentration of sugar is reduced to 0.06M in 10h and to 0.03M in 20h , hence order of the reaction is
(a) 0
(b)1
(c) 2
(d) 3

Answer 1

Since the concentration si becoming half for every 10h the order of reaction is 1

Since the concentration is directly proportional to the first order of the time

dC/dt = a constant (here 10 hours)
