Rate Laws and Order of Reactions starts at 11 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Rate Laws and Order of Reactions. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
A reaction has the rate law rate = k[A][B]2. If [A] is doubled and [B] is tripled, by what factor does the rate increase?
A reaction has the rate law rate = k[A]0.5. If [A] is increased from 0.25 M to 1.00 M, by what factor does the rate increase?
A reaction has the rate law rate = k[A]2. If the rate is 0.16 M/s when [A]=0.4 M, what is the rate when [A]=0.2 M?
A reaction has the rate law rate = k[A]2[B]. What is the effect on the rate if [A] is doubled and [B] is kept constant?
A reaction is zero order in reactant A. What happens to the rate if the concentration of A is doubled?
For the reaction 2A + B → C, the experimentally determined rate law is rate = k[A][B]. What is the order with respect to A and the overall order?
If the rate law for a reaction is rate = k[A]1[B]2, and the rate increases by a factor of 8 when [B] is doubled, what is the order with respect to B?
Consider the following data for the reaction: A + 2B → Products. Experiment 1: [A]=0.10 M, [B]=0.10 M, Initial rate = 0.020 M/s Experiment 2: [A]=0.20 M, [B]=0.10 M, Initial rate = 0.040 M/s Experiment 3: [A]=0.10 M, [B]=0.20 M, Initial rate = 0.080 M/s Determine the order of the reaction with respect to A and B.

Which of the following is a possible order for a reaction? (1) 0 (2) 1 (3) 1.5 (4) All of the above
Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a zero-order reaction? (1) The rate is independent of reactant concentration. (2) The rate constant has units of mol L-1 s-1. (3) The rate decreases as the concentration decreases. (4) The rate law is rate = k.
