Q. Units of rate constant for first and zero order reactions in terms of molarity $M$ unit are respectively

UP CPMTUP CPMT 2008

Solution:

Unit of rate constant $=\left[\frac{1}{M}\right]^{n-1} time^{-1}$
for zero order, $\left[\frac{1}{M}\right]^{-1} sec^{-1}=M \,sec^{-1}$
for first order , $\left[\frac{1}{M}\right]^{1-1} sec^{-1}=sec^{-1}$
