On a rush question: Possible ba or napakaimpossible na ang order ng rate of a ...

[gold_inhinhiero]

reaction ay na 20+? What I mean is yung sa chemical kinetics , possible ba na above 20 yung exponents ng substances sa may rate law?

Salamat po on a rush for my project.. thanks! :)

Waw, if you think about it, if you have an order of 20, your reaction should be like

aA + bB + ... sS + tT -> Products (a=b=...=s=t=1)

or

aA -> Products (a=20)

Imagine, 20 molecules colliding at the same time with the right orientation and the right collision energies to make a product. Sa tatlo pa lang, mahirap na, lalo na ang 20 :D

[Dacs]

So if we're talking about theoretically, you can achieve an order of 20 if you can find an (elementary) reaction that involves 20 molecules. Not impossible, but probably unlikely.

^ Oo nga eh ang weird pero ganun talaga yung lumalabas. Kasi diba in the expression ln(1/deltat)=pln[A] + const., p is the exponent of [A].. pero kahit anong pilit ko 20+ yung lumalabas.. Actually di siya 20+ but -20+. Well sana nga tama yun 2am na ko natulog dahil dun.. Hehe anyways di napasa ko na yung final paper ko kanikanina lang.. sana tama.. ^_^ :) Thanks again dacs lagi mong sinasagot mga tanong ko.. :)
