Re: K limiting rate
Because it's the rate constant so a large value of K will make the reaction faster where a lower K will cause a slower reaction

Re: K limiting rate
Each reaction has a unique rate. A higher k means a faster reaction and a lower k means a slower reaction. When you multiply k times the concentrations in the rate law, you get the unique reaction rate for the specific reaction.

Re: K limiting rate
how are the units for k the same as the rate for a zero order reaction?
if rate =k[A]^0 then wouldn't you divide both sides by mol/L to get s^-1=k? i know this is the answer to the units for k for a first order reaction, but i'm assuming for a zero order reaction they are the same because of the 0 exponent which makes the whole term [A]^0=1.
clarifications??
