Question

In the hydrogenation of ethylene using a nickel catalyst, the initial concentration of ethylene is 1.65 mol⋅L−1 and its rate constant (k) is 0.0014 mol⋅L−1⋅s−1 . Determine the rate of reaction if it follows a zero-order reaction mechanism.

Answer 1

.0014 M/s ( (mol*L^-1 / s) )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rate law of a zero order reaction is Rate = k[A]^0, the rate is .0014 * (1.65)^0 = .0014
