When the reaction A → B + C is studied, a plot 1/[A]t vs. time gives a straight line with a positive slope. What is the order of the reaction?

Second order

Explanation:

Given that:

When the reaction A → B + C is studied, a plot 1/[A]t vs. time gives a straight line with a positive slope.

From the integration method for the second order of reaction.

Suppose that:

rate = k₂[A]²

∴

Therefore, a plot of the linear function versus t will be linear with a positive slope k₂ and the intercept on the concentration axis will be

The linear plot for a second order reaction can be seen in theimage attached below.

answer: you could do some invislibe ink.

explanation: i will tell you how to if u answer my question.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
