EasyMCQ
According to the law of mass action,the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to:
A
Concentration of reactants
B
Molar concentration of reactants
C
Concentration of products
D
Molar concentration of products

Solution

(B) According to the law of mass action,the rate of a chemical reaction at a given temperature is directly proportional to the product of the molar concentrations of the reactants,each raised to the power equal to its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.
2
EasyMCQ
In a reaction,the rate of reaction is proportional to its active mass. This statement is known as:
A
Law of mass action
B
Le Chatelier principle
C
Faraday law of electrolysis
D
Law of constant proportion

Solution

(A) The $Law \ of \ mass \ action$ states that the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the active masses (molar concentrations) of the reacting substances.
Active mass is defined as the molar concentration of the substance,i.e.,$Active \ mass = [Concentration]$.
3
EasyMCQ
The law of mass action was enunciated by
A
Guldberg and Waage
B
Bodenstein
C
Berthelot
D
Graham

Solution

(A) The Law of Mass Action was proposed by $Cato \ Guldberg$ and $Peter \ Waage$ in $1864$.
It states that the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the active masses (or molar concentrations) of the reactants,each raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient.
4
EasyMCQ
The theory of $active$ $mass$ indicates that the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the:
A
Equilibrium constant
B
Properties of reactants
C
Volume of apparatus
D
Concentration of reactants

Solution

(D) The law of mass action states that the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the active masses of the reactants.
Active mass is defined as the molar concentration of the substance,expressed in $mol \ L^{-1}$.
5
EasyMCQ
The rate at which substances react depends on their
A
Atomic weight
B
Molecular weight
C
Equivalent weight
D
Active mass

Solution

(D) According to the Law of Mass Action,the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the active masses (molar concentrations) of the reactants,each raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.
6
EasyMCQ
The rate at which a substance reacts depends on its
A
Atomic weight
B
Equivalent weight
C
Molecular weight
D
Active mass

Solution

(D) The rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants,which is referred to as the $Active \ mass$ of the substance. This is based on the $Law \ of \ Mass \ Action$,which states that the rate of a reaction is proportional to the product of the active masses of the reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients. Therefore,the correct option is $(D)$.
7
MediumMCQ
The rate of a chemical reaction at a constant temperature is proportional to:
A
The amount of products formed
B
The product of masses of the reactants
C
The product of the molar concentration of the reactants
D
The mean free path of the reaction

Solution

(C) According to the Law of Mass Action,the rate of a chemical reaction at a constant temperature is directly proportional to the product of the molar concentrations of the reactants,each raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.
Therefore,the correct option is $(C)$.
8
EasyMCQ
For the reaction $2A + B \to \text{products}$,the active mass of $B$ is kept constant and that of $A$ is doubled. The rate of reaction will then
A
Increase $2$ times
B
Increase $4$ times
C
Decrease $2$ times
D
Decrease $4$ times

Solution

(B) The rate law for the reaction is given by $\text{Rate} = k[A]^2[B]^1$.
When the active mass of $A$ is doubled,the new rate becomes $\text{Rate}' = k[2A]^2[B]^1$.
$\text{Rate}' = k \times 4[A]^2[B]^1 = 4 \times \text{Rate}$.
Therefore,the rate of reaction increases $4$ times.
9
EasyMCQ
If the amount of $NH_3$ in a $1 \ L$ vessel is $8.5 \ g$,then its active mass in $g \ mol \ L^{-1}$ is:
A
$0.5$
B
$0.1$
C
$1$
D
$2$

Solution

(A) Active mass is defined as the molar concentration,which is the number of moles per liter of volume.
Number of moles of $NH_3$ = $\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ = $\frac{8.5 \ g}{17 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.5 \ mol$.
Active mass = $\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume in liters}} = \frac{0.5 \ mol}{1 \ L} = 0.5 \ mol \ L^{-1}$.

EasyMCQ
The rate of a reaction is proportional to the active mass of the reactants. This statement is known as the......
A
Law of mass action
B
Le Chatelier's principle
C
Faraday's law of electrolysis
D
Law of constant proportions

Solution

(A) The $Law \ of \ mass \ action$ states that the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the active masses (or molar concentrations) of the reactants,each raised to the power of its stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation. Therefore,the correct option is $A$.

MediumMCQ
The active mass of $64 \ g$ of $HI$ taken in a $2 \ L$ flask is .........
A
$32$
B
$2.5$
C
$5$
D
$0.25$

Solution

(D) The molar mass of $HI$ is $1 + 127 = 128 \ g/mol$.
Number of moles of $HI = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} = \frac{64}{128} = 0.5 \ mol$.
Active mass is defined as molarity,which is $\frac{\text{moles}}{\text{volume in liters}}$.
Active mass $= \frac{0.5 \ mol}{2 \ L} = 0.25 \ mol/L$.
