Order of reaction is zero as unit of rate constant is mole per second.

For a zero order reaction, concentration of reactant

\mathrm{A= A _o-K t }
\mathrm{ \Rightarrow A=2 M-10^{-3} \times 10 \times 60 \mathrm{M} }
\mathrm{ \Rightarrow A=2 \mathrm{M}-0.6 \mathrm{M} }

Since, concentration of reactant is reduced by 0.6 M, the concentration of product is 1.2 M (= 2x 0.6M) after 10 minutes.
