Answer : The correct option is, (B) bimolecular
Explanation :
Molecularity : It is defined as the total number of reactant molecules taking part in the balanced equation of a reaction. It is a theoretical concept.
The given balanced chemical reaction is,
[tex]NH_2Cl(aq)+OH^-(aq)\rightarrow NHCl^-(aq)+H_2O(l)[/tex]
The number of reactants molecules taking part in the balanced equation of a reaction are, [tex]NH_2Cl[/tex] and [tex]OH^-[/tex].
In this reaction, 1 [tex]NH_2Cl[/tex] molecules reacts with the 1 [tex]OH^-[/tex] molecule.
Total number of reactant molecule = 1 + 1 = 2
The molecularity of the reaction is 2 that means, the elementary reaction is bimolecular.
Hence, the correct option is, (B) bimolecular
