Step 1
The units of the rate constant depend on the overall order of the reaction. If the overall order is zero, then the rate law becomes Rate = k, and the units of k are the same as the units of the rate, such as mol/L/s or M/s. Show more…

Concerning the rate law, Rate = k[A] 2[B], what are appropriate units for the rate constant k? Group of answer choices s -1 M/s M -1s -1 M -2s -1 M 2/s
John I.
What are the appropriate units for the rate constant in the hypothetical rate law: rate = k[A]^2[B][C]? I'm unsure how to get to the answer since second order has M-1s-1 and first order has s-1, so shouldn't that mean the units are M-1s-3?
