Here we discuss some basic and beautiful concept of chemistry. I hope you learn something new. Chemistry is nothing but your own world. Our body, love, happiness, sadness related to chemistry

Pseudo Unimolecular Reaction

 PSEUDO FIRST ORDER REACTION:

There are so many reaction where more than one reactants are involved but the reaction follows first order kinetics. Such type of reactants are called PSEUDO FIRST ORDER reaction.



Ex: 1. Acid catalysed ester hydrolysis.

       2. Inversion of Cane sugar.

       3. Ester +H3O+ =  Alcohol + Acid

      rate = K[ester] [H3O+]

Here water is used in large excess and its concentration almost remain unchanged so concentration of H3O+ can be taken as constant.

rate = K1 [ester]   where  K1=K [H30+]

1st Order rate equation 

K1= K[H3O+] .....(i)

Some time it can be written as 

K=Ksp [H3O+]

-logK= -logKsp - log[H3O+]
