AIPMT PRELIMS 2012 Chemistry Zero Order Reactions MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

In a zero-order reaction for every 10° rise of temperature, the rate is doubled. If the temperature is increased from 10°C to 100°C, the rate of the reaction will become:

A

128 times

B

256 times

C

512 times

D

64 times

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

For every 10°C rise, the rate doubles. From 10°C to 100°C is a 90°C increase, which is 9 intervals of 10°C. Therefore, the rate increases by 2⁹ = 512 times.
