The rate of a gaseous reaction is given by K [A] [b] . If the volume of the reaction vessel is reduced to 
of the initial volume, the reaction rate relative to the original rate is -
A
- times
B
times
C
8times
D
16 times
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
16 times
Rate, r = K [A] [b]
According to the given data, the volume of the reaction vessel is reduced to jth. Hence, it can be written as
r 1= K[4A][4B]
= 16K [a] [b]
= 16r
r 1 = 16r
