Molar conductivity of an electrolyte solution at infinite dilution (when concentration approaches zero) is called limiting molar conductivity.
Question 30.
(a) Derive an integrated rate equation for a first-order reaction.
Answer:
Consider a zero-order reaction.
R → P
Rate = \(\frac{-d[R]}{d t}\) = k[R]0
where k is rate constant for zero order reaction.
\(\frac{-d[R]}{d t}\) = k
d[R] = -k . dt
Integrating both sides
∫d[R] = -∫k . dt
[R] = -kt + 1 ……. (1)
I is constant in integration.
At t = 0, [R] = [R]0 where [R]0 is initial concentration of the reactant.
Substituting in equation (1)
[R]0 = -k × 0 + 1; I = [R]0
Substituting ‘I’ value in equation (1)
[R] = -kt + [R]0
k = \(\frac{[\mathrm{R}]_{0}-[\mathrm{R}]}{t}\)

- The activation energy of the reactant.

Answer:
During adsorption ∆H becomes -ve [decreases], ∆S becomes +ve [increases] and ∆G becomes -ve [decreases].
