Units for Time

Postby lizzygaines1D » Tue Mar 06, 2018 9:46 pm

If you are asked to find the average rate of the reaction of some period of time, (in this case time isn't needed to solve the problem) and no time units are given, what should the time units be? I thought it would be seconds, but in self test 15.2A in the book the rate was given in L^-1 x h^-1.

In this question, the time units are actually given. The units are 1/L*h.

For when the units aren't given, the SI unit of time is seconds.
