Consider two gases, A and B, are in a container at room temperature. What effect will the following changes have on the rate of the reaction between these gases? The number of molecules of gas A is doubled.

A.decrease
B.increase

Respuesta :

Answer:

B: increase.

Explanation:

When we are considering two gases A and B in a container at room temperature .

We have to find the change on  rate of reaction when the number of molecules of gases A is doubled

Let [A]=a and [B]=b

A+B[tex]\rightarrow[/tex] product

Rate of reaction

[tex]R_1=k[A][B]=kab[/tex]

We know that concentration is increases with increase in number of moles

When the number of molecules of gases A is doubled then concentration of gases A increases.

Therefore ,[A]=2a

Rate of reaction

[tex]R_2=k(2a)(b)=2kab[/tex]

[tex]R_2=2R_1[/tex]

Hence, the rate of reaction is  2 times the initial rate of reaction.Therefore, the rate of reaction will increase when the number of molecules of gases A is doubled.

Answer: B: increase.

Answer:

The answer is increase.
