If the rate of reaction increases by a factor of 9.6 when the concentration of reactant increases by a factor of 3.1 then order of the reaction with respect to this reactant is 1/3
Rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds
Here given data is
Rate of reaction = 9.6
Concentration of reactant = 3.1
We have to calculate order of the reaction = ?
So we can write
R = K[C]ⁿ
Where R is the reaction rate and K is a constant
Here C is the concentration of the reactant
rate of reaction increases by a factor of 9.6 when the concentration of reactant increases by a factor of 3.1 then
9.6 = K× [3.1]ⁿ
Dividing this equation we get
1/9.6 = 1/3.1ⁿ
3n = 1
n = 1/3
Then the order of the reaction with respect to this reactant is 1/3
