Video transcript

Hi everyone here we have a question asking us to write the rate law for a reaction that is second order and a zero order, and B. And first order and see the reaction is A plus B plus C forms products. So A. Is second order. B is zero order and see his first order. So our rate equals K times the concentration of A squared times the concentration of B to the zero, with power times the concentration of C. Two the first. And to simplify that, our rate equals K. A squared time C. And that is our final answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.

Textbook Question

This reaction is first order in N2O5: N2O5(g) → NO3(g) + NO2(g) The rate constant for the reaction at a certain temperature is 0.053/s. b. What would the rate of the reaction be at the concentration indicated in part a if the reaction were second order? Zero order? (Assume the same numerical value for the rate constant with the appropriate units.)
