Question

16. Give the characteristic of a first-order reaction having only one reactant.

A) The rate of the reaction is not proportional to the concentration of the reactant.

B) The rate of the reaction is proportional to the square of the concentration of the reactant.

C) The rate of the reaction is proportional to the square root of the concentration of the reactant.

D) The rate of the reaction is proportional to the natural logarithm of the concentration of the reactant.

E) The rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactant

Explanation / Answer

A----> P

Rate ,r= K[A]

Where K= rate constant

So the rate of the reaction is directly proportional to to the concentration of the reactant.
