The answer is either D or B. hope this helps.
Answer:
Thus, the order of the reaction is 2.
The rate constant of the graph which is :- 2.00 M⁻¹s⁻¹
Explanation:
The kinetics of a reaction can be known graphically by plotting the concentration vs time experimental data on a sheet of graph.
The concentration vs time graph of zero order reactions is linear with negative slope.
The concentration vs time graph for a first order reactions is a exponential curve. For first order kinetics the graph between the natural logarithm of the concentration vs time comes out to be a straight graph with negative slope.
The concentration vs time graph for a second order reaction is a hyberbolic curve. Also, for second order kinetics the graph between the reciprocal of the concentration vs time comes out to be a straight graph with positive slope.
Considering the question,
A plot of 1/[NOBr] vs time give a straight line with a slope of 2.00 M⁻¹s⁻¹.
<u>Thus, the order of the reaction is 2.</u>
<u>Also, slope is the rate constant of the graph which is :- 2.00 M⁻¹s⁻¹</u>
Phosphorus tribromide is a covalent compound because they share electron pairs.
