    The rate for reaction 2A+B→2\text{A}+\text{B}\rightarrow product is 6×10−4 mol dm−3s−16\times10^{-4}\,\text{mol dm}^{-3}\text{s}^{-1}. Calculate the rate constant if the reaction is first order in A and zeroth order in B. [Given [A]=[B]=0.3 M[\text{A}]=[\text{B}]=0.3\,\text{M}]

    The rate of the reaction 2A+3B→2C+D2A + 3B \rightarrow 2C + D is 6×10−4 mol dm−3 s−16 \times 10^{-4}\ \mathrm{mol\ dm^{-3}\ s^{-1}}, when [A]=[B]=0.3 mol dm−3[A] = [B] = 0.3\ \mathrm{mol\ dm^{-3}}. If the reaction is of first order for A and zeroth order for B, then find the rate constant.
