Solution

The correct option is C k=1txa(xa)
SECOND ORDER REACTION
A + A Product
A + B Product
At t=0a a 0
At t=t
(ax) (ax) x
At t=t1(ax1) (ax1) x1
At t=t2(ax2) (ax2) x2
As per rate law, dxdt=k2[A]n=k2[A]2=k2[A][B]
(dxdt)=k2(ax)2 (k2= rate constant for second order reaction)
Also, k2=1t[1(ax)1a]=1taa(ax) or k2=1(t2t1)[1(ax2)1(ax1)]

Where (ax1) and (ax2) are the concentration of the reactant A at time t1 and t2 respectively. If reactant A and B have different concentrations a and b, then k2=2.3030t(ab)log10b(ax)a(bx)
