Question:

What are the unit of rate constant for a zero-order reaction?

Options:

time-1

mol l-1 time-1

mol-1 l time-1

None of these

Correct Answer:

mol l-1 time-1

Explanation:

Unit of rate constant = mole(1-n) litre(n-1) time-1, where n = order of reaction

Putting n = 0, we get for zero order reaction, unit of rate constant = mol litre-1 time-1
