It was determined experimentally that the reaction rate remained the same when the concentration of A was doubled in the following reaction: A + B → C
The reaction is ________ order in A.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If the reaction rate is not affected by the concentration of A, then the reaction is zero order with respect to A. This means that the rate of the reaction is independent of the concentration of A, and only depends on the concentration of B.
