Characteristics of rate constant
1. Greater the value of rate constant, faster is the reaction. 2. Each reaction has a particular value of rate constant at a particular temperature.
3. The value of rate constant for the same reaction changes with temperature. 4. The value of rate constant for a reaction does’ t depend upon the concentration of the reactants.
