Question ID: 4545

Statement - 1 : If activation energy of a reaction is zero, temperature will have no effect on the rate constant.
Statement - 2 : Lower the activation energy, faster is the reaction.
Correct Option: B
Explanation :
Both statements-1 and 2 are true but statement-2 is not a correct explanation for statement-1. The correct
explanation for statement-1 is :
(Arrhenius equation)
When ; k = A which is not possible. Thus, temperature will have no effect on rate constant.

Statement 2 : Rate of reaction is equal to the rate of disappearance of reactant or the rate of formation of product.
Correct Option: C
Explanation :
The rate of reaction is always same in terms of different reactants or products. Thus, statement-1 is true.

Explanation :
The molecularity of reaction is 2 because two reactant species are involved in the elementary reaction. Order is
experimentally determined and is equal to 3/2. Thus both statement-1 and 2 are true but statement-2 is not the
correct explanation for statement-1

Question ID: 4551

Statement - 1 : In rate law, the exponents for concentration do not necessarily match the stoichiometric co-
efficients.
Statement - 2 : It is the mechanism and not the balanced chemical equation for the overall change which governs
the reaction rate.

Question ID: 4552

Statement 1 : The rate of a reaction is normally accelerated by the presence of a catalyst.
Statement 2 : The presence of a catalyst makes the value of more negative.
Correct Option: C
Explanation :
The presence of a catalyst lowers the activation energy barrier for the reaction. As a result, the number of effective
collisions increases. Thus statement-1 is true but statement-2 is false as catalyst does not affect value.
