Chemistry Question on Chemical Kinetics

The rate constant of a reaction is molLS1\text{mol} \,L^{-}\, S^{-1}. The reaction is

A

first order

B

second order

C

zero order

D

pseudo first order

Answer

zero order

Explanation

Solution

For zero order reaction,
Rate =k[A]o=k=k[A]^{o}=k
 mol L1S=k\frac{\text { mol } L^{-1}}{S}=k
k=molL1S1k=mol\, L^{-1}\, S^{-1}
Hence, the unit of rate constant of zero order reaction is molL1S1mol \,L^{-1}\, S^{-1}.
