Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A second-order rate constant has units of volume per time per unit concentration squared, so the appropriate set of units would include L mol^-1 s^-1. Option C includes these units, as well as the appropriate units for concentration and time. The other options either do not include the appropriate units or include units that are not needed for a second-order rate constant.
