Match the following (Reactions vs Increase in rate when concentration of reactant is doubled) — Chemical Kinetics Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

(A) is fractional order (1.5), so rate increases by 2^1.5. (B) and (C) are 1st order, so rate doubles (2 times). (D) Ester hydrolysis in acidic medium is pseudo-first order (rate doubles), while in basic medium it is second order (rate quadruples, 2^2). Therefore, correct answer is A-Q, B-P, C-P, D-R,S.
