JEE Main 2025 Chemistry question
Consider the elementary reaction A(g) + B(g) → C(g) + D(g). If the volume of reaction mixture is suddenly reduced to of its initial volume, the reaction rate will become 'x' times of the original reaction rate. The value of x is :
Answer: (2)
Solution
Rate depends on concentration; reducing volume to 1/3 triples concentrations, R₂=9R₁
