State a condition under which a bimolecular reaction is a kinetically first-order reaction.
The presence of one of the reactants in excess, as in such a condition, its concentration remains constant and the rate of such reaction depends upon the concentration of one reactant only and the reaction is known as pseudo-first-order reaction e.g, acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of ethyl acetate.
