contents In this paper, we explicitly derive unbiased estimators for various functions of the rate parameter of the exponential distribution in the absence of a location parameter, including powers of the rate parameter, the $q$th quantile, the $p$th moment, the survival function, the maximum, minimum, probability density function, mean past lifetime, moment generating function, and others. This work non-trivially complements established formulas for unbiased estimators of functions of parameters of the location-rate exponential distribution. Additionally, we establish a result demonstrating the asymptotic normality of the proposed unbiased estimators.
