Question

Consider a reactant with an order of 1: What effect does that reactant have on the rate equation when the concentration is doubled 1) The reaction rate is double with respect to that reactant 2) The order doesnt effect the reaction so there will be no change 3) The reaction rate quadruples with respect to that reactant. 4) The reaction rate isn't changed by individual reactants so there will be no change.

Answer 1

1) The reaction rate is double with respect to that reactant

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

By considering the rate law:

`-r_A=kC_A`

If we double the reactant A concentration, by definition, the rate will be doubled as well since the
`C_A` power is one (order 1), this could be proved just by checking it out in the rate law.

Best regards.
