Which of the following linear plots do you expect for a reaction A¡products if the kinetics are (a) zero order, [Section 14.4]

Accepted Answer

Hello everyone today. We have the following problem for the hypothetical second order reaction X to Y. Which of these graphs is valid? So the second order integrated rate law is one over the concentration sub time as you could to constant K times the time plus one over concentration sub zero. And if we compare that with a straight line equation, so if we say versus our regular slope line mx plus B, we note that Y is equal to r one over a sub, T r M is equal to K. R X is equal to T and r B is equal to one over our concentration sub zero. And so the graph of one over X against time should be a straight line, so it should be a straight line with a positive slope. Also the Y intercept will be equal to one over concentration sub zero. And so out of all of the graphs, graphs B has a straight line for the slope and the why intercept is equal to one over X sub zero. And with that we've answered the question. I hope this helped. And until next time.
