Question

Which of the following sets of units could be appropriate for a zero-order rate constant?Answers-1L mol-1 s-1L2 mol-2 s-1L3 mol-3 s-1mol L-1 s-1

Answer 1

Answer:

mol·L⁻¹·s⁻¹

Explanation:

In the case of a zero-order reaction, the reaction rate does not change with the decrease or increase in the concentrations of the reactants:

• rate = k

And because the rate must have units of mol·L⁻¹·s⁻¹, then the rate constant k must also have units of mol·L⁻¹·s⁻¹.
