Question

tate a condition under which a bimolecular reaction is kinetically first orderreaction

🧐 Not the exact question you are looking for?Go ask a question

Solution

A bimolecular reaction can be kinetically first order under the condition where one of the reactants is present in large excess. In this case, the concentration of this reactant does not change significantly over the course of the reaction, and thus the rate of the reaction is dependent only on the concentration of the other reactant. This makes the reaction appear to be first order, even though it is bimolecular.
