For a _____________ order reaction, the units of rate constant and rate of reaction are the same ?
Correct answer: A. Zero
- A. Zero
- B. First
- C. Second
- D. Fractional
Explanation
For a zero-order reaction, the rate is -rA = k, so the rate constant and reaction rate have identical units. In first- and higher-order reactions, k carries additional concentration-dependent units.
