Solution

The reaction rate constant may be defined as the rate of the reaction when the concentration of each reactant is at unity (b). This means that the concentration of each reactant is at one molar (1 M). The rate constant is a proportionality constant in the rate equation of the reaction which relates the rate of a reaction to the concentrations of the reactants. The rate constant is independent of the concentration of the reactants, but does depend on the temperature of the system.
