Which of the following statements is $NOT$ true about the rate constant $k$?

  • A
    It is a proportionality constant in the rate law that relates reaction rate to reactant concentrations.
  • B
    It is independent of the concentration of reactants.
  • C
    It varies with temperature.
  • D

The rate law for the reaction $A + B \rightarrow \text{product}$ is $\text{rate} = k[A][B]$. When will the rate of reaction increase by a factor of $2$?

For a chemical reaction $A \rightarrow B$,the rate of the reaction is $2 \times 10^{-3} \ mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$,when the initial concentration is $0.05 \ mol \ dm^{-3}$. The rate of the same reaction is $1.6 \times 10^{-2} \ mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$ when the initial concentration is $0.1 \ mol \ dm^{-3}$. The order of the reaction is

For the reaction $aA \to xP$,the rate is $2.4 \ mMs^{-1}$ when $[A] = 2.2 \ M$. When the concentration of $A$ is halved,the rate becomes $0.6 \ mMs^{-1}$. Determine the order of the reaction with respect to $A$.

Rate of the reaction $A + B \rightarrow \text{product}$ is $3.6 \times 10^{-2} \ mol \ dm^{-3} \ s^{-1}$ and rate law is $r = k[A][B]^2$. What is the rate constant of the reaction if $[A] = 0.2 \ M$ and $[B] = 0.1 \ M$?
