Question

Higher order (>3) reactions are rare due to : -

Options

A.shifting of equilibrium towards reactants due to elastic collision

B.loss of active species on collision

C.low probability of simultaneous collision of all the reacting species

D.increase in entropy and activation energy as more molecules are involved.

Solution

Higher order (>3) reaction are rare due to low probability of simulatneous collision of more than three molecuels.
