    The units of the rate of a second order reaction are

    A) \[\text{tim}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}\]

    B) \[\text{mol}\,{{\text{L}}^{-1}}\,\text{tim}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}\]

    C)  \[\text{L}\,\text{mol}{{\,}^{-1}}\,\text{tim}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}\]

    D) \[{{\text{L}}^{2}}\,\text{mol}{{\,}^{-2}}\,\text{tim}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Rate of a second order reaction \[=\frac{\text{change}\,\text{in}\,\text{concentration}}{\text{time}}\] \[=\frac{\text{mol}\,{{\text{L}}^{-1}}}{\text{time}}\] \[=\text{mol}\,{{\text{L}}^{-1}}\text{tim}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}\] \[\therefore \]The units of rate of a second order reaction  is\[\text{mol}\,{{\text{L}}^{-1}}\text{tim}{{\text{e}}^{-1}}\].
