Question

If the concentration of reactants is increased by 'X', the rate constant K becomes:

• A. $e^{\left(\frac{K}{X}\right)}$
• B. $\frac{K}{X}$
• C. $K$
• D. $\frac{X}{K}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $K$

When the concentration of reactants is increased by 'X', the rate constant K becomes K. Rate constant has no relation with the concentration of the reactant. Rate constant is a characteristic constant for a given reaction.
Concentration of reactants is related with rate of reaction. If concentration of reactants is increased, rate of reaction also increases.
