Concentration data is commonly monitored during a reaction to determine the order with respect to a reactant. Consider the types of observations listed, and determine which order is likely for that reactant. Assume all other factors are held constant. The reaction rate is constant regardless of the amount of reactant in solution: Choose: first order, second order, or zero order.   The reaction rate increases in direct proportion to the concentration of the reactant in solution: Choose: first order, second order, or zero order.   An increase in the concentration of the reactant in solution causes the reaction rate to increase exponentially: Choose: first order, second order, or zero order.

Question

Concentration data is commonly monitored during a reaction to determine the order with respect to a reactant. Consider the types of observations listed, and determine which order is likely for that reactant. Assume all other factors are held constant.

  • The reaction rate is constant regardless of the amount of reactant in solution:

    Choose: first order, second order, or zero order.
     
  • The reaction rate increases in direct proportion to the concentration of the reactant in solution:

    Choose: first order, second order, or zero order.
     
  • An increase in the concentration of the reactant in solution causes the reaction rate to increase exponentially:

    Choose: first order, second order, or zero order.
