chapter 6. CHEMICAL KINETICS class 12 chemistry textbook solution

3. Answer the following in brief.

xi. How will you represent first order reactions graphically.

Answer:-  i. The differential rate law for the first order reaction A→ P is

ratre law

The equation is of the form y = mx + c. A plot of rate versus concentration [A]t is a straight line passing through origin. This is shown in Fig. 6.3. The slope of straight line = k.

Variation of rate with [A]

ii. From Eq. the integrated rate law is

log 1
on rearrangement
A plot showing log10 [A]t vs time t
abc
A plot of log1
