Read the passage carefully and answer the questions.
The speed at which a chemical reaction takes place is called the rate of reaction. The rate of reaction depends on various factors like concentration of the reactants, temperature, etc. The relation between the rate of reaction and the concentration of reacting species is represented by the equation \( r = k[A]^x[B]^y \), where x and y are the order of the reaction with respect to the reactants A and B, respectively. The overall order of the reaction is x + y. The rate of reaction can also be increased by the use of a catalyst which provides an alternate pathway of lower activation energy. It increases the rate of forward and backward reactions to an equal extent. It does not alter the Gibbs energy of the reaction.
Question 41:
The rate of a gaseous reaction is given by \( r = k[A]^x[B]^y \). If the volume of the reaction vessel is suddenly reduced to \( \frac{1}{4} \)th of its initial value, the reaction rate relating to the initial rate will become
Calculate the order of a reaction whose Rate = \( k [A]^{1/2} [B]^{3/2} \).
The rate law of a reaction is given by \( r = k[CH_3OCH_3]^{3/2} \). If the pressure is measured in bar and time in minutes, then the unit of rate constant will be:
If the rate of reaction becomes twenty-seven times upon increasing the concentration of reactant by three times, the order of this reaction is
The role of a catalyst is to change:
Read the passage carefully and answer the questions.
Replacement of a hydrogen atom in a hydrocarbon by an alkoxy or carboxyl group yields a class of compounds known as ethers. Ethers are classified as symmetrical or unsymmetrical on the basis of groups attached to the oxygen atoms. Diethyl ether, a symmetrical ether, has been widely used as an inhalation anesthetic. Ethers can be prepared by acid catalyzed intermolecular dehydration of alcohols and Williamson’s synthesis. Acid catalyzed dehydration of alcohols is not generally preferred as it gives a mixture of elimination and substitution products. In Williamson’s synthesis, an alkyl halide is allowed to react with sodium alkoxide. Ethers containing substituted Alkyl groups may also be prepared by this method. The C-O bond in ether is weakly polar and is cleaved under drastic conditions with excess of hydrogen halides. In electrophilic substitution, the alkoxy group deactivates the aromatic ring and directs the incoming group to ortho and para positions.
Question 46:
When ethanol is dehydrated in the presence of \( H_2SO_4 \) at 443K and 413K respectively, the products formed are:
