Calculate the mass of compound (molar mass = 256 g mol-1) to be dissolved in 75 of benzene to lower its freezing point by 0.48 K (Kf= 5.12 kg mol-1 )
Write two differences between 'order of reaction' and 'molecularity of reaction?
Order |
Molecularity |
The overall order of reaction is the sum of all the exponents of all the reactants present in the rate law expression. |
It is the number of reacting species taking part in an elementary reaction, which must collide simultaneously in order to bring about a chemical reaction. |
It is determined experimentally. |
It is a theoretical concept. |
It may be equal to zero or have fractional values. |
It cannot be equal to zero and it always has integral values( which cannot exceed 3) |
