← ScienceWhich consequence results when a zero order reaction proceeds past reactant depletion?
A)Rate constant rapidly decreases to zero✓
B)Reaction shifts toward equilibrium kinetics
C)Apparent rate becomes diffusion-controlled
D)Hydrodynamic losses increase exponentially
💡 Explanation
The rate constant becomes undefined, but its observable value functionally drops to zero because the reaction stops, therefore, because 'concentration' becomes unsustainable after reactant consumption as the mechanism terminates rather than becomes diffusion limited.
