The addition of a catalyst to the reaction system

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

Increases the rate of forward as well as backward reaction equally

Option D (Increases the rate of forward as well as backward reaction equally) is correct because a catalyst lowers the activation energy for both forward and reverse reactions equally, thus increasing both rates.

The indicator used in titrating oxalic acid with caustic soda solution is:

\mathrm{K}_1

and

\mathrm{K}_2

are equilibrium constant for reactions (i) and (ii)

\mathrm{N}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{NO}(\mathrm{g})\quad\ldots

(i)

\mathrm{NO}(\mathrm{g}) \rightleftharpoons \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~N}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})\quad\ldots

(ii)

Then,

K{a_1},\,\,\,K{a_2}\,\,\,\mathrm{and}\,\,\,K{a_3}

are the respective ionisation constants for the following reactions

\begin{array}{l} {H_2}S\leftrightharpoons{H^ + } + H{S^ - }\\ H{S^ - }\leftrightharpoons{H^ + } + {S^{2 - }}\\ {H_2}S\leftrightharpoons2{H^ + } + {S^{2 - }} \end{array}

The correct relationship between

K{a_1},\,\,K{a_2}\,,K{a_3}

is The

\mathrm{pH}

solution is (For

\mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{H}_4,

depends on: A : At equilibrium concentration of the reactant and product does not change with time for a chemical reaction.
R: The rate of reaction is zero at equilibrium.
