2A B + C It would be a zero order reaction when
- the rate of reaction is proportional to square of concentration of A
- the rate of reaction remains same at any concentration of A
- the rate remains unchanged at any concentration of B and C
- the rate of reaction doubles if concentration of B is increased to double
Answer
(2) the rate of reaction remains same at any concentration of A
Solution
For a zero order reaction: rate = k[A]0 = k
As per NCERT, in a zero order reaction the rate is independent of the concentration of the reactant.
∴ The rate of reaction remains the same at any concentration of A (the reactant). B and C are products, so they do not decide the order.
Answer: (2)
