Consider the reaction of chloromethane with OH in aqueous solution CH3Cl(aq)+OH(aq)KfKrCH3OH(aq)+Cl(aq)
At 25oC, the rate constant for the forward reaction is 6×106M1s1, and the equilibrium constant Kc is 1×1016.
Calculate the rate constant for the reverse reaction at 25oC.

  1. 3×1022
  2. 6×1022
  3. 12×1022
  4. 12×1023

A
6×1022
B
3×1022
C
12×1022
D

Solution
Verified by Toppr

As we know,
Kc=kf/kb
kb=Kckf
=1×1016×6×106
=6×1022
