Question

Which one of the following is incorrect?

• A. Rate constant equals the rate of reaction when concentration of reactants equals unity.
• B. Larger the value of rate constant (\(k\)) value faster is the chemical reaction.
• C. The unit for rate constant for \(n^{th}\) order reaction is \((\text{mol/L}^{-1} \text{s}^{-1})^{n-1}\).
• D. The value of rate constant (\(k\)) is independent of concentration of reactants.

Hint:

The unit of the rate constant depends on the order of the reaction. For a first-order reaction, it is \( \text{s}^{-1} \), and for a second-order reaction, it is \( \text{L/mol} \cdot \text{s} \).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C
