Assertion: Hydrolysis of methyl ethanoate is a pseudo first order reaction.

Reason: Water is present in large excess and therefore its concentration remained constant throughout the reaction.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Both assertion and reason are correct statements, and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
Option A is correct because both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason accurately explains why the hydrolysis of methyl ethanoate is a pseudo-first-order reaction.
