(N/A) The general formula for the unit of the rate constant $(k)$ for a reaction of order $n$ is given by:
Unit of $k = (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-n} \ s^{-1}$
$1.$ For a fourth order reaction $(n = 4)$:
Unit of $k = (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-4} \ s^{-1} = (mol \ L^{-1})^{-3} \ s^{-1} = mol^{-3} \ L^3 \ s^{-1}$
$2.$ For a third order reaction $(n = 3)$:
Unit of $k = (mol \ L^{-1})^{1-3} \ s^{-1} = (mol \ L^{-1})^{-2} \ s^{-1} = mol^{-2} \ L^2 \ s^{-1}$

For a reaction $A \rightarrow 2 B + C$ the half-lives are $100 \ s$ and $50 \ s$ when the concentration of reactant $A$ is $0.5 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ and $1.0 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ respectively. The order of the reaction is (Nearest Integer).

The reaction rate between two substances $A$ and $B$ is expressed as: $\text{rate} = k[A]^n[B]^m$. If the concentration of $A$ is doubled and the concentration of $B$ is halved,the ratio of the new rate to the initial rate will be:
