Question

Given the rate law for a reaction, rate = k[A]2, where rate is measured in units of M min-1, what are the units for the rate constant k?

Group of answer choices
M-2min-1
M-1min-2
M1min-1
M-1min-1
None of the above
Expert Solution
Step 1

The rate law of the reaction is given as,

=> Rate = K [A]2 

where K = rate constant

And [A] = concentration of reactant (units is M)
