(N/A) The general formula for the unit of the rate constant $(k)$ for a reaction of order $(n)$ is given by: $(mol \ L^{-1})^{1-n} \ s^{-1}$.
$1.$ For a zero-order reaction $(n = 0)$:
Unit $= (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-0} \ s^{-1} = mol \ L^{-1} \ s^{-1}$.
$2.$ For a second-order reaction $(n = 2)$:
Unit $= (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-2} \ s^{-1} = (mol \ L^{-1})^{-1} \ s^{-1} = L \ mol^{-1} \ s^{-1}$.

For a gaseous reaction between $X$ and $Y$,$X + 3Y \rightarrow XY_3$,the initial rate data is given below:
$[X] = 0.1 \ M, [Y] = 0.1 \ M, \text{Rate} = 0.002 \ Ms^{-1}$
$[X] = 0.2 \ M, [Y] = 0.1 \ M, \text{Rate} = 0.002 \ Ms^{-1}$
$[X] = 0.3 \ M, [Y] = 0.2 \ M, \text{Rate} = 0.008 \ Ms^{-1}$
$[X] = 0.4 \ M, [Y] = 0.3 \ M, \text{Rate} = 0.018 \ Ms^{-1}$

For the reaction $2A + 2B \rightarrow 2C + D$,if $r = k[A]^2[B]^0$,then the rate of reaction is:

For the reaction: $2A + B \to A_2B$; the rate $= K[A][B]^2$ with $K = 2.0 \times 10^{-6} \ L^2 \ mol^{-2} \ s^{-1}$. Initial concentrations of $A$ and $B$ are $[A]_0 = 0.2 \ mol/L$ and $[B]_0 = 0.4 \ mol/L$ respectively. Calculate the rate of reaction after $[A]$ is reduced to $0.12 \ mol/L$.

For a reaction $A + B \rightarrow \text{Product}$,the rate of reaction doubles when the concentration of $A$ is doubled. The rate becomes four times when the concentrations of both $A$ and $B$ are doubled. What is the order of the reaction with respect to $A$ and $B$ respectively?

If $a$ is the initial concentration of the reactant,the half-life period of the reaction of $n^{th}$ order is inversely proportional to
