According to Hess's law, the heat of reaction depends upon :
initial condition of reactants
initial and final conditions of reactants
intermediate path of the reaction
end conditions of reactants
A reaction is catalysed by 'X' Here 'X' :
decreases the rate constant of reaction
does not affect the equilibrium constant of reaction
decreases the enthalpy of reaction
decreases the activation energy
D.
decreases the activation energy
Catalysts reduce the activation energy for reaction and thus increase the rate of reaction .
For a reaction; A + B product, it was found that rate of reaction increases four times if concentration of 'A' is doubled, but the rate of reaction remains unaffected if concentration of 'B' is doubled. Hence, the rate law for reaction is :
rate = k[A][B]
rate = k[A]2
rate = k [A]2[B]1
rate = k [A]2[B]2
The rate constant k, for the reaction
is 2.3 x 10-2s-1. Which equation given below describes the change of [N2O5] with time? [N2O5]0 and [N2O5]t correspond to concentration of N2O5 initially and at time t.
[N2O5]t =[N2O5]0 +kt
[N2O5]t = [N2O5]0ekt
log[N2O5]t = log[N2O5]0 +kt
For the reaction A + 2B → C, the reaction rate is doubled, if the concentration of A is doubled. The rate is increased by four times when concentrations of both A and B are increased by four times. The order of the reaction is

The increase in rate constant of a chemical reaction with increasing temperature is (are) due to the fact(s) that
the number of collisions among the reactant molecules increases with increasing temperature
the activation energy of the reaction decreases with increasing temperature
the concentration of the reactant molecules increases with increasing temperature
the number of reactant molecules acquiring the activation energy increases with increasing temperature
