NEET Chemistry Rate of Reaction Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The rate of a chemical reaction is influenced by the concentration of reactants.
Reason (R): Increasing the concentration of reactants decreases the frequency of effective collisions between reactant molecules.
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 but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The rate of a chemical reaction does depend on the concentration of reactants, as higher concentrations typically increase the frequency of effective collisions, not decrease it, contradicting the reason given.
