For the reaction, A products, if the graph of [A] vs time gives a straight line, predict the order of the reaction.
Options
- APseudo first order
- BFirst order
- CSecond order
- DZero order
Correct answer
D. Zero order
Step-by-step solution
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 correct option is (4).
