Understand the Problem

The image contains notes about chemical kinetics, detailing concepts such as rate of reactions, order of reactions, rate laws, and collision theory. The question may be seeking clarification or deeper understanding of these topics.

Answer

First order reaction: Rate = k[A], not k[A]².

The first order reaction rate law is incorrect.

Answer for screen readers

The first order reaction rate law is incorrect.

More Information

In a first order reaction, the rate is proportional to the concentration of a single reactant raised to the first power. The given rate expression suggests a second order reaction.

Tips

A common mistake is confusing the order of reaction with the coefficients in the balanced equation, leading to incorrect rate laws.
