Question

The plot that represents the zero order reaction is:

Options

• 

• 

• 

• 

Answer 1

Explanation:

For zero order reaction,

Rate, r = k[R]⁰

⇒ Rate = `(-d[R])/(dt)` = k × 1

⇒ d[R] = k dt

⇒ [R] = −kt + R_o

Where R_o is the concentration of reactant at time t = 0.

Thus, [R] decreases with time t.
