Detailed Solution
When in any chemical reaction, one of the reactant is present in large excess, then the second-order reaction becomes first-order reaction and is known as pseudo unimolecular reaction e.g., CH3COOCH3+H2O→H+CH3COOH+CH3OHin this reaction molecularity is 2 but order of reaction is found to be first order experimentally, so it is an example of pseudo unimoelcular reaction.
