zero order

[Mary Grace Stevens 3G]

What does it mean for the reactants of a zero order reaction?

[Brian_Wu_3B]

it means that the rate at which a reaction occurs is not dependent on the concentration of reactant.

[Isabella Chou 1A]

For a zero-order reaction, the rate of the reaction is independent of the concentration of the reactants.
The differential rate law for zero-order is rate = (-1/a)(d[A]/dt) = k[A]^0 = k, so you can see how the rate does not depend on [A].
This can happen when a catalyst or enzyme is required in the reaction, and that catalyst or enzyme has become saturated, so increasing the concentration of the reactants does not increase the rate of the reaction.

[Edward Tang 1k]

It just means that the rate of reaction is not dependent on that element which is zero order. As in d[A]/dt=-k[A]^0=-k, the rate is solely dependent on k.

[manisha_joseph_1H]

For a zero order reaction, the rate of the reaction is not dependent on the concentration of the reactants but simply on k, which varies depending on the specific reaction occurring under a certain set of conditions.

[Andy Hon 3E]

The reaction rate is not dependent on the reactants in the reactionn

[abby hyman]

Zero order means that the reaction rate does not depend on the concentration of the reactants
First order means that the reaction rate depends on the concentration of one reactant
Second order means that the reaction rate depends on the concentration of 2 reactants

[Vanshika Bhushan 1A]

It means that the rate does not vary with the increase or decrease in the concentration of the reactants.

[Taylor Newville 1C]

The concentration of a reactant that is zero order has no effect on the rate of its reaction. The concentration of this species can triple or halve but the rate of the reaction will stay constant. It is therefore not included in the rate law of that reaction.

[Lesly Lopez 3A]

From what I understand, it practically means that the rate of the reaction is not dependent. It does not depend on whether the rest of the reaction increases or decreases. As in d[A]/dt=-k[A]^0=-k, the rate is solely dependent on k. Hope that kinda clears things up.

[Nayra Gharpetian 3F]

it means that the rate of the reaction is not dependent of the concentration of the reactants. the rate depends on k

[aashmi_agrawal_3d]

The rate of the reaction does not depend on the concentrations of the reactants.

[Maddie Turk Disc 2J]

So basically it is just dependent on K, nothing else?

[Brian Acevedo 2E]

The concentration of the zero order reactants does not affect the rate of the overall reaction. Sometimes this is because the reactant in question is not directly involved in the rate-limiting step.

[Jose Miguel Conste 3H]

it just means that it is not dependent on the reactants, hence the zero order r = kt

[Siwa Hwang 3G]

concentration of reactant is not affected in order for the reaction to occur

[Gian Boco 2G]

Independent of concentrations of the reactants

[Michael Cardenas 3B]

Zero order means that the reaction rate does not depend on the concentration of the reactants
First order means that the reaction rate depends on the concentration of one reactant
Second order means that the reaction rate depends on the concentration of 2 reactants

This was very clear and helpful.Thank you!

[Teti Omilana 1G]

The reaction rate is not dependent on the reactants.

[josephspindler2H]

For a zero order reaction, the rate is independent of the concentration of the reactant.

[Mina Tadros 3L]

For a zero-order reaction, the rate of the reaction is independent of the concentration of the reactants.

[Armen_Isayan_2L]

Hello! For a zero-order reaction, the overall rate of the reaction is not dependent on the concentration of the reactants but rather it is dependent on k. However, depending on the set of conditions and type of reaction it varies.

[abby hyman]

A zero order reaction has a rate that is independent of the concentration of a reactant

[YuditGaribay3J]

I believe that in zero-order reactions you wouldn't see a pattern between the concentrations and the rates of the reaction. The simplest way I can explain it.

[Brandon McClelland3L]

In a zero order reaction, the rate of reaction is not dependent on the concentrations of the reactant.

[rhettfarmer-3H]

A zero order reaction means that the rate does not dependent on the concertation of the element.

[kentbui1d]

For zero order, the concentration doesn't matter.

[IshanModiDis2L]

If it is zero order, the rate of the reaction is independent of the concentration.

[Abhinav Behl 3G]

Since a zero-order rate law will be k[A]^0, which is just k, that means that the rate does not depend on the concentration of the reactant(s).

[Aaron Akhavan-Dis1B]

Zero Order means the reaction isn't affected by the concentration. The equations that come with it are [A]=-kt+[A0], d[A]=-kdt, t(1/2)= [A0]/ (2k).

[Chloe Shamtob 2H]

The rate of the reaction does not depend on the concentration of the reactants when considering a zero order reaction.

[Jennifer Fuentes 2K]

order of a reaction: with respect to one of the reactants, the order of a reaction is equal to the power to which the concentration of that reactant is raised in the rate equation.

[Neha Jonnalagadda 2D]

The order of the reactants are not dependent if there is an order of zero.

[dahlia Faruque]

it means that the rate of the reaction is not dependent on the the concentration of the reactants

[Audrey Banzali-Marks 1A]

The rate of the reaction is not dependent on the amount of reactant in the case of a zero-order. If you think about it, a zero-order rate is written as rate = k*[reactant]^0. Anything to the 0th power is automatically 1, so the rate simply becomes rate = k*1 = k.

[Chris Korban 1D]

zero order means that the kinetics of the reaction do not depend on the concentration of reactant or product

[Audrey Banzali-Marks 1A]

The reactants of a zero-order reaction do not affect how fast the reaction goes. In the rate law for this reaction, all reactants are put to the zeroeth power, so no matter what their concentration is, their contribution to the rate law will be multiplying the rate law by 1.

[Jennifer Fuentes 2K]

A zeroth-order reaction is one whose rate is independent of concentration; its differential rate law is rate = k. We refer to these reactions as zeroth order because we could also write their rate in a form such that the exponent of the reactant in the rate law is 0: rate=−Δ[A]Δt=k[reactant]0=k(1)=k.

[Triston Dinh 1D]

For a zero order reaction, the rate of reaction is not dependent on the concentration of reactant.

[Sammy Liu]

In a zero order reaction, the concentration of the reactants does not affect the reaction rate. It is only dependent on the k value. This is called a "zero order reaction" because anything to the power of zero is one.

Hope this helps!

[Olivia Peony Dis 2A]

Reaction rate is independent of the concentration of the reactant !

[Aashna Bhandari 1L]

For a zero order reaction, that means the integrated rate law is [A]=-kt+[A]o, where we can see that the rate of the reaction is only impacted by k, and is not affected at all by the concentrations of the reactants.

[Benicio Rivera 1F]

A zeroth-order reaction is one whose rate is independent of concentration; its differential rate law is rate = k. We refer to these reactions as zeroth order because we could also write their rate in a form such that the exponent of the reactant in the rate law is 0: rate=−Δ[A]Δt=k[reactant]0=k(1)=k.

[Amy Shimizu 1J]

Hi! A zero order reaction just means that the rate of the reaction is only dependent on the rate constant, k, and not on the concentration of the reactants.

[Neha Mukund]

A zero order reaction is a reaction in which the rate is independent of the reactant's concentration.

[Om Patel]

zero order means that the rate law does not depend on the concentration

[Aaron Kim 1J]

If a reaction is a zero-order reaction, the rate of the reaction is not dependent on the reactant concentration.

[Emiliano Olivo Cauberghs]

A zero-order reaction is when the rate of the reaction does not depend on the reactant's concentration.
