The correct rate law for the reaction is given as Rate = -0.208 hr-1 [sucrose].
<h3>What is a first order reaction?</h3>
A first order reaction is one in which a plot of the logarithm of the concentration against time gives a straight line graph. Now we know that this is a decomposition reaction thus the slope is negative.
Thus, in this case, the correct rate law for the reaction is given as Rate = -0.208 hr-1 [sucrose].
