1. What overall reaction order corresponds with a rate constant with units s^–1?


2. What overall reaction order corresponds with a rate constant with units of M∙s^–1?


Thank you! :)

Answer:

If the reaction is zero order, the rate constant has exactly the same units as the rate of the reaction mol L-1 s -1.

If the reaction is first order, then the concentration of one reactant takes care of the units of concentration, thus the rate constant is simply given in units of reciprocal time, s-1.

If the reaction is second order, then two units of concentration are already present so the rate constant needs reciprocal time plus inverse units of concentration, L mol-1 s-1.

If the reaction is third order, the rate constant should have units of L2 mol-2 s-1.

For a first order reaction, the unit of the rate constant is  s^–1 while for  a second order reaction, the unit of the rate constant is M∙s^–1.

The accurate order of reaction can only be determined from experimental values. We have the following orders of reactions;

  • Zero order reaction
  • First order reaction
  • Second order reaction

For a first order reaction, the unit of the rate constant is  s^–1 while for  a second order reaction, the unit of the rate constant is M∙s^–1.
