Moderate

As the hydrolysis of ester proceeds, more and more acid is formed giving a _.

Correct answer: A. Rising curve

  • A. Rising curve
  • B. Falling Curve
  • C. Straight line
  • D. None of these options is correct

Explanation

It is correct as initially the rate of reaction is high because of higher concentration of esters .A repeated analysis at various time intervals after the start of reaction ,provides us information about the change in concentration of acetic acid and if we plot a graph for this it will give a rising curve .

About Reaction Kinetics

Reaction kinetics relates reaction rate to concentration, temperature, surface area and catalysts. Questions cover rate laws, reaction order, rate constants, activation energy and the activated complex, including how a catalyst lowers the activation energy without changing the overall energy change or equilibrium position.
