The given plots represent the variation of the concentration of a reactant R with time for two different reaction (i) and (ii) The respective orders of the reactions are

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Integrated rate law for first order reaction is
k=1t1nCoCt
[WhereCt→concentration of reactant at timet,Co→initial concentration of reactant]
1nCoCt=1nCo-1nCt=kt
1n(Ct)=-kt+1n(Co)
If(Ct)=[R]=concentration of reactant
1n[R]=-kt+1n(Co)
On comparing withy=mx+C
⇒Slopem=-kfor graph between 1n (R) and t with intercept 1n(Co)
⇒First graph is of first order
Integrated rate law for zero order reactions isCt=Co-ktor[Ct]=-kt+[Co]or[R]=-kt+[Co](Ct=Rgiven)
On comparing withy=mx+C
⇒slopem=-kfor graph between (R) and t with interceptCo
⇒Second graph is of zero order reactions.
