Question
When the rate of the reversible reaction A + B ⇌ C is studied under a certain set of conditions, it is found that the rate of the forward reaction is kf[A]. What can be concluded about the rate law for the reverse reaction under these conditions?
A.
Rate = kr[C]
B.✓ Correct
Rate = kr[C]/[B]
C.
The rate law of the reverse reaction cannot be determined from the information given.
D.
An error must have been made, since if the reaction is reversible, the forward rate law must be Rate = kf[A][B].
