Q
If a plot of 1/[A] versus time produces a straight line with a positive slope for the reaction A → B + C, what is the order of the reaction?
A
Second

Q
What is the first-order integrated rate law?
A
5
Q
What is the zero-order integrated rate law?
A
6
Q
Second-order integrated rate law
A
7
Q
What is the effect on k as the activation energy for a reaction increases?
A
Decreases
According to the Arrhenius equation, an increase in the activation energy would result in a smaller value for the rate constant.
