    The unit of rate constant for a zero order reaction is

    A)  \[{{s}^{-1}}\]

    B) \[\text{mol}\,\text{L}{{\text{s}}^{-1}}\]

    C)  \[mol\,{{L}^{-1}}{{s}^{-1}}\]

    D)  no unit

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     For nth order of reaction a general formula for the unit of rate constant is \[{{\left( \frac{\text{mole}}{\text{litre}} \right)}^{1-n}}\times {{\sec }^{-1}}\] \[\because \]For zero order reaction,\[n=0\] \[\therefore \]Unit of rate constant for zero order reaction is mole \[\text{litr}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}{{\sec }^{-1}}\]or \[\text{mol}\,{{L}^{-1}}{{S}^{-1}}.\]
