Question
Match the following reactions in Column I with their unit of rate constant in Column II:<br><br>Column I:<br>(A) $SO_2$$Cl_2$ → $SO_2$ + $Cl_2$<br>(B) CH3COOC2H5 + $NaOH$ → CH3COONa + $C_2H_5OH$<br>(C) 2$H_2O_2$ → 2$H_2O$ + $O_2$<br>(D) $H_2O_2$ + 2I⁻ + 2H⁺ → 2$H_2O$ + $I_2$<br><br>Column II:<br>(P) s⁻¹<br>(Q) min⁻¹<br>(R) L mol⁻¹ min⁻¹<br>(S) L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹
Answer: A→P,Q; B→R,S; C→P,Q; D→R,S
💡 Solution & Explanation
(A) $SO_2$$Cl_2$ decomposition is first-order: s⁻¹ or min⁻¹ (P,Q). (B) Saponification is second-order: L mol⁻¹ min⁻¹ or L mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ (R,S). (C) $H_2O_2$ decomposition is first-order: P,Q. (D) Acidic iodination is second-order: R,S.
