Rate equation for the hydrolysis of Tertiary Butyl Bromide is independent of concentration of water as a reactant because?
Correct answer: D. Both A and B
- A. It's in excess
- B. It's a solvent
- C. It's a solute
- D. Both A and B
Explanation
A Pseudo first-order reaction can be defined as a second-order or bimolecular reaction that is made to behave like a first-order reaction. This reaction occurs when one reacting material is present in great excess or is maintained at a constant concentration compared with the other substance.Therefore, option d is correct because the rate equation for hydrolysis of tertiary butyl bromide is independent of the concentration of water as a reactant as it's a solvent and present in excess. The rest options are incorrect.

About Order of Reaction
Reaction order shows how the rate depends on the concentration of each reactant, as expressed in the rate law. Coverage includes zero, first and second-order reactions, integrated rate equations, half-life, units of rate constants and the distinction between overall order and molecularity.
