Q. The inversion of cane sugar represented by $C _{12} H _{22} O _{11}+ H _{2} O \rightarrow C _{6} H _{12} O _{6}+ C _{2} H _{12} O _{6}$ is a ____reaction.

Chemical Kinetics

Solution:

Inversion of cane sugar is pseudo first order reaction because conc. of $H _{2} O$ remain constant. So, rate of reaction doesn't depend on concentration of $H _{2} O$.
$r=K'\left[C_{12} H_{22} O_{11}\right]$
