RATE CONSTANT UNITS

Name .. Form .

Work out the units for the rate constant in each of the following examples.

Rate equation Rearrange to give k Working Units for k

1) rate = k [A] k = rate k = (mol dm-3) s-1 s-1

[A] (mol dm-3)

2) rate = k [P] [C]

k = rate/([P][C])
k = moldms moldms
(moldm)

3) rate = k [S]2 moldms/(

k = rate/[S] moldms

4) rate = k [J]2 [M]2 moldms/(moldm)

k = rate/([J][M]) moldms

5) rate = k [T]
k = rate/[T] s
moldms/(moldm)

6) rate = k [R] [W] [G]2

k = rate/([R][W][G]) k = (moldms)/(moldm) moldms

7) rate = k [D]2 [B]

k = rate/([D][B]) k = moldms/(moldm) moldms

8) rate = k [A] [B] [C]

moldms

9) rate = k [M] [P]

moldms

10) rate = k [H+] [Br- ] moldms
