For the reaction , it would be a zero-order reaction when:
The rate of reaction is proportional to the square of the concentration of A
The rate of reaction remains the same at any concentration of A
The rate remains unchanged at any concentration of B and C
The rate of reaction doubles if the concentration of B is doubled
A zero-order reaction means that the rate of the reaction is proportional to the zeroth power of the concentration of reactants. According to the rate law, . Therefore, the rate of reaction is independent of the concentration of the reactant A and remains the same at any concentration of A .
