The rate of a specific chemical reaction is independent of the concentrations of the reactants.Thus the reaction is:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If the rate of a chemical reaction is independent of the concentrations of the reactants, it means the reaction is a zero-order reaction. In a zero-order reaction, the rate of the reaction is proportional to the rate constant only, and not dependent on the concentrations of the reactants. Therefore, the correct answer is E, overall zero order.
