- #160The decomposition of phosphine (``PH_3``) on tungsten
at low pressure is a first-order reaction. It is because
the
(1) rate is independent of the surface coverage
(2) rate of decomposition is very slow
(3) rate is proportional to the surface coverage
(4) rate is inversely proportional to the surface
coveragedigAnsr: 3Ans : (3)
Sol. The decomposition of PH3 on tungsten at low
pressure is a first order reaction because rate is
proportional to the surface coverage.
