The reaction between X and Y is first order with respect to X and zero order with respect to Y.

Experiment [X]molL−1 [Y]molL−1 InitialratemolL−1min−1
I 0.1 0.1 2×10−3
I L 0.2 4×10−3
III 0.4 0.4 M×10−3
IV 0.1 0.2 2×10−3

Examine the data of table and calculate ratio of numerical values of M and L. (Nearest Integer)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

r=k[X][Y]0=k[X]

Using I & II

4×10−32×10−3=(L0.1)⇒L=0.2\frac{4 \times 10^{-3}}{2 \times 10^{-3}}=\left(\frac{L}{0.1}\right) \quad \Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{L}=0.2

Using I & III

M×10−32×10−3=0.40.1⇒M=8\frac{M \times 10^{-3}}{2 \times 10^{-3}}=\frac{0.4}{0.1} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{M}=8

ML=80.2=40\frac{M}{L}=\frac{8}{0.2}=40
