Answer:
d. The rate constant is independent of the concentrations of the reacting species.
Explanation:
According top law of mass action,
The rate of a reaction is directly proportional to product of active concentration of the reactant each raised to the power of their orders (experimentally determined numbers).
Where, k is rate constant
m and n are order
Hence, a is incorrect.
If order is equal to zero, it means that the rate does not depend on the concentration of that reactant which means that c is incorrect.
Rate constant in the expression of the rate law depends only on temperature and thus, d is correct.
Statement e is not always true.
Catalyst is the specie that alters the rate of a reaction which means that b is incorrect.
