Sucrose Decomposes to Fructose and Glucose in Acid Solution

Multiple Choice

Sucrose decomposes to fructose and glucose in acid solution. When ln [sucrose] is plotted vs. time, a straight line with slope of -0.208 h^-1 results. What is the rate law for the reaction?

A) Rate = (0.208 h^-1) [sucrose]²
B) Rate = (0.208 h^-1) [sucrose]
C) Rate = (0.0433 h) [sucrose]²
D) Rate = (0.0433 h) [sucrose]
E) Rate = (0.208 mol L^-1 • h^-1) [sucrose]⁰
