Solution
2NH3Pt⟶N2+3H2
Rate =k
(i)The reaction is Zero order reaction as the rate is independent of the concentration of the reactant.
Molecularity is the number of molecules that come together to react in an elementary reaction. So the reaction is Bimolecular as two molecules of NH3 are reacting.
(ii)The unit of rate constant for zero order reaction k=Molarity/sec or mole/Lpersecond
