delta [x] / delta t
2
Q
Rate definition
A
-Speed at which reactants are converted to products overtime
3
Q
Instantaneous rate
A
-Slope of tangent line
-1 point on curve
-2 points on tangent line to calculate
slope = y2-y1 / x2-x2
-Reaction rate at a specific time
4

A
-At time 0, how fast the reaction is
-When the reaction is the fastes
-Tangent at time 0
5
Q
Sign reactants in rate
A
