Measuring Rates of Reaction Flashcards
1
Q
Rate of reaction
A
How fast reactants turn into products
2
Q
Measuring rate of reaction
A
Change in quantity/change in time
3
Q
Quantities which can be measured
A
Mass, volume, concentration
4
Q
The steeper the slope,
A
the faster the reaction.
5
Q
Once a reaction is finished (reaches end point),
A
the graph levels off.
6
Q
The reaction is fastest
A
at the start.
7
Q
The concentration of reactants
A
starts off high and decreases as the reaction proceeds,
8
Q
The concentration of products
A
starts at zero and increases as the reaction proceeds.
9
Q
Relative rate =
A
1/time.
10
Q
Time =
A
1/relative rate
