Solution

The rate constant (k) of a reaction can be calculated using the rate law equation:

Rate = k[A]^m[B]^n

Where: Rate is the rate of reaction, [A] and [B] are the concentrations of the reactants, m and n are the reaction orders with respect to [A] and [B], and k is the rate constant.

Given: Rate = 1.5 mol/L/s, [A] = 1 M, [B] = 3 M, m = 2, and n = 1.

Substitute these values into the rate law equation:

1.5 = k(1)^2(3)^1 1.5 = k13 1.5 = 3k

Solve for k:

k = 1.5 / 3 k = 0.5

So, the rate constant of the reaction is 0.5. The correct answer is D.0.5.
