NEET Chemistry Rate of Reaction MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about reaction order and rate constants is correct?
The units of the rate constant for a zero-order reaction are mol L^-1 s^-1.
For a first-order reaction, the rate constant has units of concentration time^-1.
The rate of a zero-order reaction is dependent on the concentration of reactants.
The rate constant for a first-order reaction is independent of temperature changes.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The units of the rate constant for a zero-order reaction are indeed mol L^-1 s^-1, as stated in the NCERT context. First-order reactions have a different unit of rate constant and depend on the concentration of reactants.
