Kinetics Flashcards
1
Q
If changing the concentration of a reactant A has no effect on the rate of the reaction
A
the reaction is zero order with respect to A
2
Q
If doubling the concentration of a reactant A doubles the rate of the reaction
A
the reaction is first order with respect to A
3
Q
If doubling the concentration of a reactant A increases the rate of the reaction by 2 doubles
A
then the reaction is second order with respect to A
4
Q
What is the rate determining step?
A
The rate of reaction is dependent on the slowest step
