An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

Rate of reaction will be same if $0.05 M HCl$ is taken or $0.05 M H_{2} {SO}_{4}$ is taken.

There will be no effect of concentration of $[H^{+}]$ on rate of reaction

Rate of reaction will be faster when $1 M HCl$ is taken as compared to when $1 M {CH}_{3} COOH$ is taken.

The reaction proceeds following third order kinetics.
