Butadiene, C4H6, dimerizes (two molecules combine to form a single molecule) to form C8H12. The rate constant for the dimerization is 0.84 M-1 min-1 at a certain temperature.

(1) Based on the units of the rate constant, what is the order of the reaction?

a) zeroth-order b) first-order c) second-order d) third-order


(2) How long will it take for the concentration of butadiene to go from 0.200 M to 0.128 M?


a) 0.53 min b) 3.3 min c) 22 min d) 2.4 min

please explain how you derived the answer. thank you
