Q. An example of a zero order reaction is

COMEDKCOMEDK 2005Chemical Kinetics

Solution:

Reactions occurring on metal surfaces are zero order reactions. The concentration of the gaseous reactant on the metal surface remains constant because as the reactants react off on the surface, more molecuies are adsorbed on the surface. Hence, rate remains constant throughout.
