Chemistry Question on Chemical Kinetics
The rate constant of a reaction is molL−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
S mol L−1=k
k=molL−1S−1
Hence, the unit of rate constant of zero order reaction is molL−1S−1.
