The decomposition of dimethyl ether leads to formation of \(CH_4\), \(H_2\) and \(CO\). The reaction rate is given by Rate \(= k[PCH_3OCH_3]^{3/2}\). If pressure is measured in bar and time in minutes, what is the unit of rate constant? |
\(bar^{–1/2} min^{–1}\) \(bar^{3/2} min^{–1}\) \(bar^{–1} min^{–1}\) \(bar^{–3/2} min^{–1}\) |
\(bar^{–1/2} min^{–1}\) |
The correct answer is option 1.\(bar^{–1/2} min^{–1}\). The rate equation given is: |
