Solution

The correct option is D Xsum,Ytime1,Zmin1
The order of a chemical reaction is defined as the sum of the powers of the concentration of the reactants in the rate equation of that particular chemical reaction.

General formula for the unit of rate constant = mole(1n) L(n1) min1.

For 1st order reaction,
n = 1
Therefore, unit of rate constant = min1

The unit of rate constant in terms of pressure and time:
mol (1n) L (n1) min1 or atm(1n) min 1

For 1st order reaction,
n = 1
Therefore, the unit is min1.

Hence, the correct answer is option D.
