In a certain reaction, `10%` of the reactant decomposes in one hour, `20%` in two hours, `30%` in theee hours, and so on. The dimenison of the velocity constant (rate constant) are

Options

A. `h^(-1)`
B. `mol L^(-1)h^(-1)`
C. `L mol^(-1)h^(-1)`
D. `L^(2)mol^(-2)h^(-1)`

Answer

C

Explanation

It is a second order reaction because as the percent of the reactant decomposing is doubled (or tripled), the time required is also doubled (or tripled).
