Sucrose decomposes to fructose and glucose in acid solution. When ln [sucrose] is
plotted vs. time, a straight line with slope of -0.208 hr-1 results. What is the rate law for
the reaction?
A) Rate = 0.208 hr-1 [sucrose]2
B) Rate = 0.208 hr-1 [sucrose]
C) Rate = 0.0433 hr [sucrose]2
D) Rate = 0.0433 hr [sucrose]
E) Rate = 0.208 mol L-1hr-1 [sucrose]0

Respuesta :

The correct rate law for the reaction is given as Rate = -0.208 hr-1 [sucrose].

What is a first order reaction?

A first order reaction is one in which a plot of the logarithm of the concentration against time gives a straight line graph. Now we know that this is a decomposition reaction thus the slope is negative.

Thus, in this case, the correct rate law for the reaction is given as Rate = -0.208 hr-1 [sucrose].
