A

change in concentration over a specific period of time

48
Q

instantaneous rate

A

rate of the reaction at one point in time

49

50
Q

RATE EXPRESSION

A
51
Q

rate law definition

A

equation that relates the rate of reaction to the concentration of reactants

52

A

order of A

54
Q

y in rate law =

A

order of B

55
Q

To find X & Y in rate law

A
  • in the information given, find 2 different concentrations of A in which the concentration of B is constant
  • divide one by the other
  • for these same sets of data, divide one rate of A by the other rate of A
  • rate quotient = (concentration quotient)x or y
  • do the same for B, using y

60
Q

3 important things about rate law

A
  • exponents must be determined from experimental data
  • rate depends on concentration of reactants
  • reaction order is determined by reactant concentrations, never product concentrations
