For a reaction with negative order n, which one of the following is true about reaction rate constant?(a) k = (-rA)(b) k = 1(c) k = \(\frac{-r_A}{C_A^n} \)(d) k =(-rA) × CA^nI have been asked this question during an interview.The origin of the question is Reaction Kinetics Elements in section Elements of Reaction Kinetics of Chemical Reaction Engineering

Answer»

The correct ANSWER is (d) k =(-RA) × CA^n

Best EXPLANATION: For n<0, (-rA) = kCA^n

Hence, k = (-rA) × CA^n
