(b) how can you calculate the rate constant for the first-order reaction from the graph you made in part (a)? Group of answer choices A.) (a) a graph on log[A] versus time
(a) For the generic reaction A ---> B. If this is a first-order reaction, what quantity when graphed versus time will yield a straight line?
(b) how can you calculate the rate constant for the first-order reaction from the graph you made in part (a)?
A.) (a) a graph on log[A] versus time yields a straight line for a first-order reaction.
(b) the slope of the straight line.
B.) (a) a graph on 1/[A] versus time yields a straight line for a first-order reaction.
(b) the slope of the straight line.
C.) (a) a graph on [A] versus time yields a straight line for a first-order reaction.
(b) the slope of the straight line.
D.) (a) a graph on ln[A] versus time yields a straight line for a first-order reaction.
(b) the negative slope of the straight line.
