NEET Chemistry Order of Reaction Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The order of a reaction can be a fractional value.
Reason (R): The rate of reaction depends only on the concentration of reactants.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The order of a reaction can indeed be fractional, as seen in CH3CHO decomposition with order 3/2. However, the rate of reaction depends on both concentration and specific rate constants, not exclusively on concentration.
