Unit of rate constant for a reaction is mol L^-1S^-1 . What is the order of the reaction?
Added by Randy M.
Step 1
This unit can be written as: k = [mol/L]/s where k is the rate constant, [mol/L] is the concentration of the reactant in moles per liter, and s is the time in seconds. Now, let's consider the general rate law for a reaction: rate = k[A]^m[B]^n where A and B Show more…

What are the units of the rate constant for a reaction whose rate law is second order with respect to reactant A and zero order with respect to reactant B? A. L * mol^-1 * s^-1 B. L * mol^-1 * s C. L^2 * mol^-2 * s^-1 D. L^2 * mol^-2 * s^-2 E. L^-1/2 * mol^1/2 * s^-1
Adi S.
The unit of second-order reaction rate constant is: (a) $\mathrm{L}^{-1} \cdot \mathrm{mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~d} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$ (b) $\mathrm{L}^{2} \mathrm{~mol}^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$ (c) L. $\mathrm{mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$ (d) $\mathrm{s}^{-1}$
