NEET Chemistry Order of Reaction Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The order of a reaction can be determined from the stoichiometry of the reaction. | Reason (R): The rate of a reaction is always proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
Assertion (A) is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The order of a reaction is not necessarily determined by the stoichiometry of the reaction; it is determined experimentally. The given reason is false as the order does not always correspond to stoichiometric coefficients.
