zero order reaction, n=0, the rate is what to the concentration of A?
Independent
first-order reaction, n=1, the rate is what to the concentration of A?
Directly proportional
second-order reaction, n=2, the rate is what to the concentration of A?
Proportional to the square of A
Average Rate of Full Reaction
aA+bB –> cC+dD
Rate= -1 Δ[A]= -1 Δ[B]= +1 Δ[C]= +1 Δ[D]

Rate Law of Full Reaction
aA+bB –> cC+dD
Rate= k[A]^n[B]^m
