Determine the units of rate constant for first and zero order reaction.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`K=(mol)^(1-n) L^(n-1) S^(-1)`
For zero order , n=0
So, `K=(mol)^(1-0) L^(0-1) S^(-1) =S^(-1) "mol L"^(-1)`
For first order , n=1
`K=(mol)^(1-n) L^(n-1) S^(-1)`
So, `K=(mol)^(1-1) L^(1-1)S^(-1)`
`=S^(-1)`
