Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What happens to the rate of a zero-order reaction if the concentration of the reactant is doubled?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what β€˜zero-order’ means for the rate.

Question 2

Easy

In a first-order reaction, how does the rate change if the reactant concentration is halved?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember, first-order means a direct relationship.

Question 1

What is the order of a reaction if doubling the concentration of a reactant doubles the reaction rate?

  • Zero Order
  • First Order
  • Second Order

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the direct correlation between concentration and rate.

Question 2

True or False: The zero-order reaction rate is affected by changes in the concentration of the reactants.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the definition of zero-order reactions?

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider the reaction A + B β†’ Products. In experiment one, [A] = 1 M, [B] = 2 M and the rate is 2 M/s. In experiment two, [A] is increased to 2 M while [B] remains constant and the rate is 4 M/s. What is the order of reaction with respect to A?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Analyze how changes in the concentration of A affected the rate.

Question 2

Given experiments showing [A] = 0.5 M, [B] = 0.5 M results in a rate of 0.1 M/s, and when [B] is doubled to 1 M, the rate increases to 0.4 M/s, determine the order for B.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the rate change in terms of concentration changes.
