Question

The rate of reaction in terms of the "rate law expression" includes the rate constant (k�), the concentration of the reactants, and the orders of the reaction with respect to the different reactants.

Consider the following reaction:

A+B→C+DA+B→C+D

The initial concentrations of the reactants AA and BB are 0.260 M� and 0.400 M�, respectively.

The rate of reaction is 0.060 M⋅s−1�⋅s−1, and the orders of the reaction, with respect to reactants AA and BB, are 1 and 2, respectively.

Determine the rate constant (k�) for the reaction using the rate law.

Express your answer in M−2⋅s−1�−2⋅s−1 to three significant figures.
