Expert Solution

Step 1

(i) The units of rate constant for first order reaction are time^-1.

In the given question, the units of rate constant are given as s^-1 where s is the unit of time. So, the reaction is first order.

(ii) The integrated rate law for the first order reaction is $l n [A] = - k t + l n [A]_{o}$ . If a plot of ln[A] vs time (t) is a straight line then the reaction is first order with respect to "A". Here, $S l o p e = - k$
