The number of incorrect statement/s from the following is: A) The successive half lives of zero order reactions decreases with time. B) A substance appearing as reactant in the chemical equation may not affect the rate of reaction. C) Order and molecularity of a chemical reaction can be a fractional number. D) The rate constant units of zero and second order reaction are mol L^-1 s^-1 and mol^-1 L s^-1 respectively.

JEE Chemistry 2023 Question with Solution
Answer
Correct answer:1
Step-by-step solution
Statement Check
A, B and D are correct. C is incorrect because molecularity cannot be fractional. Therefore, the number of incorrect statements is 1.
Common mistakes
Treating molecularity like order; molecularity is always a whole number for an elementary step.
