A reaction in which A, B, and C react to form products is zero order in A, one-half order in B, and second order in C. b. What is the overall order of the reaction? order in A, one-half order in B, and second order in C

Verified step by step guidance

Identify the order of the reaction with respect to each reactant: zero order in A, one-half order in B, and second order in C.

Recall that the overall order of a reaction is the sum of the orders with respect to each reactant.

Add the orders of each reactant: 0 (for A) + 0.5 (for B) + 2 (for C).

Calculate the sum to determine the overall order of the reaction.

The overall order of the reaction is the result of the sum from the previous step.
