For the chemical reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) the correct option is :

  1. - d[N2]dt = 2 d[NH3]dt
  2. - d[N2]dt = 12 d[NH3]dt
  3. 3 d[H2]dt = 2 d[NH3]dt
  4. - 13 d[H2]dt = - 12 d[NH3]dt

Answer

(2) - d[N2]dt = 12 d[NH3]dt

Solution

As per NCERT, the rate of reaction is expressed by dividing the rate of change of concentration of each species by its stoichiometric coefficient (negative sign for reactants, positive for products):

Rate = - d[N2]dt = - 13 d[H2]dt = + 12 d[NH3]dt

- d[N2]dt = 12 d[NH3]dt

Option (4) has a wrong sign for NH3 and option (3) has wrong coefficients.

Answer: (2)

The correct difference between first and second order reactions is that

  1. the rate of a first-order reaction does not depend on reactant concentrations; the rate of a second-order reaction does depend on reactant concentrations
  2. the half-life of a first-order reaction does not depend on [A]0; the half-life of a second order reaction does depend on [A]0
  3. a first-order reaction can be catalysed; a second-order reaction cannot be catalysed
  4. the rate of a first-order reaction does depend on reactant concentrations; the rate of a second-order reaction does not depend on reactant concentrations
