Concentration data is commonly monitored during a reaction to determine the order with respect to a reactant. Consider the types of observations listed, and determine which order is likely for that reactant. Assume all other factors are held constant. 1. An increase in the concentration of the reactant in solution causes the reaction rate to increase exponentially.

a. first order
b. second order
c. zero order

2. The reaction rate increases in direct proportion to the concentration of the reactant in solution.

a. first order
b. second order
c. zero order

3. The reaction rate is constant regardless of the amount of reactant in solution.

a. first order
b. second order
c. zero order

The concentration data has been required for the determination of the rate of reaction. Based on the concentration of reactant and product, the rate has been determined.

1. For the first-order reaction, there has been an exponential increase in the rate of the reaction with the increase in the reactant concentration. The rate has been dependent on the concentration of the reactant.

Thus the correct option is A.

2. Irrespective of the first-order kinetic, in the second-order reaction, the rate of reaction has been directly proportional to the concentration of the reactant in the solution.

Thus option B is correct.

3. The zero-order reaction has been independent of the concentration of the reactant. The rate of reaction has been constant with an increase in the reactant concentration.

Thus option C is correct.

1) first order

2) second order

3) zero order

Explanation:

The curve of a first order reaction shows it to be exponential. In fact for a first order reaction, the concentration at a time t is an exponential function;

[A]t= [Ao] e^-kt

Where

[A]t = concentration at time =t

[Ao]= initial concentration

k= rate constant

t= time

For a second order reaction, the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of reactants.

For zero order reactions, rate of reaction is independent of concentration hence rate = k(rate constant)
