The larger the rate constant the faster the reaction

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

So which one is it? I can't really tell.

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

If I told you they were in scientific notation would that help?

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

1.3*10^3 4.2*10^(-3) 2.8 9.5*10^(-2)

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Ohh so is it D?

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

1.3*10^3 = 1300 4.2*10^(-3) = 0.0042 2.8 = 2.8 9.5*10^(-2) = 0.095

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

So it's A?

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

yup

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Thank you :)

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

Do you get scientific notation now though?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Yes, thanks to your explanation :)

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

ok great
