Point out the incorrect statement
A
Rate law is an experimental fact whereas law of mass action is a theoretical proposal
B
Rate law is always different from the expression of law of mass action
C
Rate law is more informative than law of mass action for the development of mechanism
D
Order of a reaction is equal to the sum of powers of concentration terms in the rate law
Answer
Rate law is always different from the expression of law of mass action
Explanation
Solution
Rate law expression may come out to be similar to that predicted by law of mass action
