Question

For a reaction, A → products, with the rate law: Rate = k[A]²,

		(a) a plot of ln[A] vs. time gives a straight line.
		(b) a plot of Rate vs. concentration gives a straight line.
		(c) both (a) and (b) are correct.
		(d) a plot of 1/[A] vs. time gives a straight line.
		(e) both (b) and (d) are correct.

Expert Solution

Step 1

The rate law is a mathematical relationship which can be obtained by the comparison of reaction rates with the reactant concentrations. The reaction order is the sum of the concentration term exponents in a rate law equation.
