The rate constant for a reaction is 4.65 L mol-1s-1. The overall order of the reaction is:
zero
first
second
third

I am having trouble with the order of reactions. I dont understand this question. this is an assignment question but i have no idea how to do it.

The units tell you the order.
Look under this link for second order. (And write down the others). This is good to remember.
