Question

If a reaction involves gaseous reactants and products, the units of its rate are:

• A. $atm$
• B. $atm$ $s$
• C. $atm$ $s^{-1}$
• D. $at{m}^2{s}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $atm$ $s^{-1}$

If a reaction involves gaseous reactants and products, the unit of its rate is $atm{s}^{-1}$. It represents the change in pressure (in atm units) in unit time ($1$ second).
