For the reaction, \(A \rightarrow\) products, if the graph of \([A]\) vs time gives a straight line, predict the order of the reaction.

  1. A Pseudo first order
  2. B First order
  3. C Second order
  4. D Zero order
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Zero order

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

If the reaction is zero order, a plot of \([A]\) versus \(t\) will produce a straight line with a slope that corresponds to the negative of the product of the rate constant and time, \(-k t\) and \(y\) intercept that corresponds to the initial concentration \([A]_0\). Hence, the…
