If the rate of a chemical reaction doubles with a 10°C increase in temperature, what will be the rate change if the temperature is increased by 30°C?
A
Increases by 8 times

C
Increases by 6 times
D
Increases by 12 times
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
According to the rule of thumb provided in the NCERT, the rate of a reaction doubles for every 10°C increase in temperature. Therefore, for a 30°C increase, the rate would double three times, resulting in an 8-fold increase (2 x 2 x 2 = 8).
