Question

In a chemical reaction, \[\ce{2A + B -> C + D}\] Find the INCORRECT statement.

Options

• Rate of consumption of (B) = Rate of formation of (C) = rate of appearance of (D)

• `1/2` Rate of consumption of (A) = Rate of formation of (C) or (D)

• Twice the Rate of consumption of A = Rate of consumption of (B)

• `1/2` Rate of consumption of (A) = Rate of consumption of (B)

Answer 1

`1/2` Rate of consumption of (A) = Rate of consumption of (B)

Explanation:

Rate = `-1/2 ("d"["A"])/"dt" = -("d"["B"])/"dt" = ("d"["C"])/"dt" = ("d"["D"])/"dt"`

∴ `1/2` Rate of consumption of (A) = Rate of consumption of (B) = Rate of formation of (C) = Rate of formation of (D)
