Which of the following statements is correct about zero order reaction?

  1. A Rate of reaction depends on rate constant.
  2. B Rate of reaction is independent of concentration of reactant.
  3. C Half life of reaction does not depend on initial concentration.
  4. D Unit of rate constant is time \({ }^{-1}\).
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Rate of reaction is independent of concentration of reactant.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Rate of Zero order reaction is equal to Rate constant of that reaction, which is independent of concentration. Hence, on increasing concentration of reactants, rate of reaction does not increase.
