Question

In the following reaction: xAyB\mathrm{xA \rightarrow yB} log10[d[A]dt]=log10[d[B]dt]+0.3010\log_{10}\left[-\frac{d[\mathrm{A}]}{dt}\right] = \log_{10}\left[-\frac{d[\mathrm{B}]}{dt}\right] + 0.3010

'A' and 'B' respectively can be:

Options
  1. a

    C2H4\mathrm{C_2H_4} and C4H8\mathrm{C_4H_8}

  2. b

    C2H2\mathrm{C_2H_2} and C6H6\mathrm{C_6H_6}

  3. c

    n-Butane and Iso-butane

  4. d

    N2O4\mathrm{N_2O_4} and NO2\mathrm{NO_2}

Correct Answera

C2H4\mathrm{C_2H_4} and C4H8\mathrm{C_4H_8}

Detailed Solution

From the equation: log10[d[A]dt]log10[d[B]dt]=0.3010=log102\log_{10}\left[-\frac{d[\mathrm{A}]}{dt}\right] - \log_{10}\left[-\frac{d[\mathrm{B}]}{dt}\right] = 0.3010 = \log_{10} 2 d[A]/dtd[B]/dt=2\frac{-d[\mathrm{A}]/dt}{d[\mathrm{B}]/dt} = 2 For C2H4C4H8\mathrm{C_2H_4 \rightarrow C_4H_8}, 2C2H4C4H82\mathrm{C_2H_4} \rightarrow \mathrm{C_4H_8}, so d[A]dt=2d[B]dt-\frac{d[\mathrm{A}]}{dt} = 2 \frac{d[\mathrm{B}]}{dt}.
