A reaction A → B is independent of concentration of reactant A. The order of reaction will be:
Correct answer: D. Zero order
- A. First order
- B. Third order
- C. Second order
- D. Zero order
Explanation
In a zero-order reaction, the rate of the reaction is constant and does not depend on the concentration of the reactant. This matches the description provided, making it the correct answer.

About Reaction Kinetics
Reaction kinetics relates reaction rate to concentration, temperature, surface area and catalysts. Questions cover rate laws, reaction order, rate constants, activation energy and the activated complex, including how a catalyst lowers the activation energy without changing the overall energy change or equilibrium position.
