The rate of reaction does not decrease appreciably as the reaction proceeds in case of ______________ reactions?
Correct answer: A. Autocatalytic
- A. Autocatalytic
- B. Exothermic
- C. Endothermic
- D. Autothermal
Explanation
In an autocatalytic reaction, the product promotes the reaction and partly offsets the decrease in reactant concentration as conversion proceeds. Consequently, the rate need not fall appreciably over the relevant conversion range.
