A reaction is zero order in a reactant. Which best describes what happens to the rate if the concentration of that reactant is cut in half?
a: The rate changes to twice the original rate.
b: The rate changes to one-half the original rate.
c: There is no change in the rate.
d: There is a decrease in the rate when there is only a single reactant.

Respuesta :

I think the correct answer would be that there will be no change in the rate of the reaction. For a reaction with zero order, it is represented as r = k which means that the rate does not depend on the concentration of any species in the reaction. It depends only on the temperature since k depends on temperature.
