Question

For a zero-order reaction AkP\text{A} \xrightarrow{k} \text{P} if the initial concentration of A is [A]o, the time required to consume all the reactant is


A.

​​2[A]0/k2[A]_0/k​​

B.

[A]0/k[A]_0/k​​

C.

[A][A]0/k[A]-[A]_0/k​​

D.

k[A]0k[A]_0​​

Correct option is B

In a zero-order reaction, the rate of reaction

that is, the reaction proceeds at a constant rate and does not depend on the concentration of A.

Integrated Rate Law

Let [A]​0 be the concentration of A at t=0 and [A]t be the concentration at time t.

For the given reaction,

[A]=[A]0-kt

100% completion means [A]=0

t=[A]0/k
