Question

If you have the following reaction: `"NO"_2(g) + "CO"(g) -> "NO" (g) + "CO"_2(g)` and the rate law is: rate = k[NO2] If the concentration of nitrogen dioxide doubles the rate of the reaction will ____________?

Answer 1

From the rate law,we can understand that the rate of reaction depends on the conc. of the `N O_2`,(`r=k[NO_2]`)

So,let,the rate of reaction will be `r'` on doubling the conc. of `NO_2`

So, `r'= k[2NO_2] = 2 k[NO_2] =2r`

So,rate of reaction will also get doubled.
