Answer 1

CONCEPT:

Zero Order Reaction

A zero order reaction is a type of chemical reaction where the rate of reaction is independent of the concentration of the reactants.
The rate law for a zero order reaction can be expressed as:
Rate = k
where k is the rate constant.

In a zero order reaction, the rate of reaction is constant and does not change with the concentration of the reactants.
This means that the rate of reaction is independent of the initial concentration of the reactants.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
- Option 1: Independent of initial conc. of reactants

Therefore, for a zero order reaction, the rate of reaction is independent of the initial concentration of reactants.
