For a reaction X Y , the graph of the product concentration (x)...
For a reaction , the graph of the product concentration versus time came out to be a straight line passing through the origin. Hence the graph of and time would be
Options
- Astraight line with a negative slope and an intercept on -axis
- Bstraight line with a positive slope and an intercept on -axis
- Ca straight line parallel to -axis
- Da hyperbola.
Correct answer
C. a straight line parallel to -axis
Step-by-step solution
If product concentration is .
For a zero order reaction
Thus graph would be a straight line passing through origin. So the given information is for zero order reaction. For a zero order reaction, rate of the reaction is constant. Thus, plot of rate time, i.e., time will be a straight line parallel to -axis.
