(N/A) The general formula for the unit of the rate constant $(k)$ for a reaction of order $n$ is given by:
Unit of $k = (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-n} \ s^{-1}$
$1.$ For a fourth order reaction $(n = 4)$:
Unit of $k = (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-4} \ s^{-1} = (mol \ L^{-1})^{-3} \ s^{-1} = mol^{-3} \ L^3 \ s^{-1}$
$2.$ For a third order reaction $(n = 3)$:
Unit of $k = (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-3} \ s^{-1} = (mol \ L^{-1})^{-2} \ s^{-1} = mol^{-2} \ L^2 \ s^{-1}$

Rate law for a reaction is $r=k[A]^2[B]$. If rate constant is $6.25 \ mol^{-2} \ dm^6 \ s^{-1}$,what is the rate of reaction when $[A]=1 \ mol \ dm^{-3}$ and $[B]=0.2 \ mol \ dm^{-3}$?

For the reaction $A + B \to \text{Product}$,the rate of reaction becomes four times when the concentration of $A$ is doubled. If the rate of reaction does not change when the concentration of $B$ is doubled,the rate law for the reaction will be.....

The reaction,$X + 2Y + Z \to N$ occurs by the following mechanism:
$(i)$ $X + Y \rightleftharpoons M$ (very rapid equilibrium)
$(ii)$ $M + Z \to P$ (slow)
$(iii)$ $P + Y \to N$ (very fast)
What is the rate law for this reaction?

For a reaction $A + B \rightarrow \text{Product}$,the order with respect to $A$ is $2$ and with respect to $B$ is $3$. If the concentration of both is doubled,by how much will the rate increase?
