Question
The reactant concentration in a second-order reaction was 0.180 mol L−1 after 240 s and 3.80×10−2 mol L−1 after 805 s . What is the rate constant for this reaction?
Express your answer with the appropriate units. Include an asterisk to indicate a compound unit with mulitplication, for example write a Newton-meter as N*m.
The integrated rate laws for zero-, first-, and second-
order reaction may be arranged such that they
resemble the equation for a straight line,y = mx +b.
