In a study of the rearrangement of cyclopropane to propene at 500 C,
(CH_2)_3 -----> CH_3CH=CH_2
the concentration of (CH_2)_3 was followed as a function of time. It was that a graph of ln[(CH_2)_3] versus time in seconds gave a straight line with a slope of -1.04*10^-3 s^-1 and a y-intercept of -2.02. Based on this plot, what is the order for the reaction and the value of the rate constant?
