Step 1
It is known that the rate law can be written as follows:
Given the reaction: X + Y => Products (completed and balanced), the rate of the reaction would be:
[tex]rate\text{ = k }\lbrack X\rbrack^a\lbrack Y\rbrack^b[/tex]k = rate constant
[X] = concentration of reactant X
[Y] = concentration of reactant Y
a, b = are the order of the reaction with respect to X and Y (they are not necessarily the coefficients of the reaction)
---------
Step 2
Information provided:
k
First order in A
Zero order in B
Second order in C
Therefore, the rate law:
Answer:
[tex]\begin{gathered} rate\text{ =k x }\lbrack A\rbrack^1x\text{ }\lbrack B\rbrack^0x\text{ }\lbrack C\rbrack^2 \\ rate\text{ = k x }\lbrack A\rbrack\text{ x }\lbrack C\rbrack^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
