Question

show thst the rate constant of the first order reaction does not depend on the concentration of the reactants.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In a first order reaction, the units of the rate constant donot depend upon the concentration of the reactants. ... Since the units of a and (a-x) are to cancel out, therefore, units of rate constant (k) donot upon the concentration of the reactants.

Answer 2

The specific rate constant (k) is the proportionality constant relating the rate of the reaction to the concentrations of reactants. The rate law and the specific rate constant for any chemical reaction must be determined experimentally. The value of the rate constant is temperature dependent.
