Solution

The rate of a reaction is the rate of disappearance of a reactant or appearance of a product.

Rate=d[R]/dt=(d[P])/dt

Where, [R]= molar concentration of the reactant.

[P]= molar concentration of the product.

This equation is known as the rate law.

Thus, the mathematical expression for the rate of a reaction is known as the rate law.

(A)(ii)

For a zero-order reaction, the rate is dependent only on the rate constant i.e. it is independent of the concentration of the reactant.

Rate=k[R]0

Where, k= rate constant

[R]= molar concentration of the reactant.

Rate=k

Thus, the rate of the reaction for a zero-order reaction is equal to the rate constant (k).

(B)(i)

For a zero-order reaction,

Units of rate of the reaction =molL1s1

Units of rate constant =molL1s1

Thus, the units of rate constant for a

zero-order reaction is the same as that of the rate of the reaction.

(C)(iv)

Complex reactions occur in multiple steps and the slowest step is known as the

rate-determining step. Thus, the order of a complex reaction is determined by the order of the slowest step.

(D)(iii)

(A)(ii),(B)(i),(C)(iv),(D)(iii)
